Aaaah, under the title "Life is Art." Saturday (How Was Yours? - I'd read your experiences voraciously and perhaps vicariously) Here's a bit of mine. Under sky threateningly gray (perhaps grey) yet surrounding air comfortingly humidly warm, walking/hiking/stopping/listening/looking/breathing/magicking for 180 minutes or so. Smiling at group with cameras and binoculars checking out sea lions and excitedly labeling them "otters." Why not? Others marveling at the verbiage of the otters (sea lions) lionseas who congregate on one particular rock and bark "Art, art, art, art." They will miseducate but enchant others.....brings a smile. We are luckily sans oil rigs off the coast because of the sea otter. Once almost extinct, these furry little swimmers who ate all the abalone and rotate rotate in the sea (for they breathe through their fur), the Monterey Coast is protected from those who would spill viscous liquids in its deep sea canyon. http://pt-lobos.parks.state.ca.us/ Ha, ha, hiked with a systems analyst I had never met face to face - only computer to computer (right brain meets left - interesting discourse) Put him in my red beetle with sunflower in bud vase and payments on it like rent and techno industrial rave music on the Blaupunkt sound system (really loud!!!) in Rrose my red beetle (like the Monty Python fish liscence scene, all my pets are named Rrose like all his were named Eric) and ripped down the coast yum I love this car it's like driving a red surrealistic bubble but sounds like a Porsche when escalating miles.
