This One's For Mike

This is a blossom on the little cherry tree in our front yard. Our friend Agnes bought it the day after Jo Ann died, for us to plant in her memory.

Despite the drought hardened soil, we managed to dig a hole large enough to plant it, and I watered the tree every day the local water rationing rules allowed.

It obviously survived the winter. I guess it was the fertilizer spikes I pounded in the ground at the drip line in October.

Mike told me that he didn't know if it would bloom the first year, but that if it did, I better take pictures so he could see.

So here you go, bro. I love you. Have a great trip.

I was looking on a DVD for another older photo to try a crop on when I ran across this one taken about the same time.

I don't know why I didn't post this back in September.

Into The Mystic

We were born before the wind
Also younger than the sun
Ere the bonnie boat was won as we sailed into the mystic
Hark, now hear the sailors cry
Smell the sea and feel the sky
Let your soul and spirit fly into the mystic
And when that fog horn blows I will be coming home
And when that fog horn blows I want to hear it
I don't have to fear it
I want to rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
Then magnificently we will float into the mystic
And when that fog horn blows you know I will be coming home
And when thst fog horn whistle blows I got to hear it
I don't have to fear it
I want to rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
And together we will float into the mystic
Come on girl...
