About Me

i like: watching muffins and cupcakes zoom around the desert, frolicking in nature and trekking in the great outdoors, adventuring, journeying, dancing to a lone drummer on the edge of the playa under a blanket of shooting stars, meeting new people, LAUGHTER, sparks and flames, the sky, fiddle fiddle FIDDLE, playing tunes on the accordion, guitar, piano, harmonica and banjo [not all at the same time mind you], noticing the little things that normally go unnoticed, creating art, gardens, cruising around on my bike Blue Steel, conversations, finds of all kinds, the magic of live music, b&w photography, letters, sketches, notes, letters, old and new, randomness and spontaneity, people vs. solitude, the vast sky and the salty sea, blissful laziness vs. glorious change... and PIE.... oh, and hopping trains, the click of inspiration...... tea and of course... apple-frickin-cider.
