Quiet days ..

Hey everybody .. a couple of you are probably wondering why I haven't posted much in a couple of days. It's been a couple of days of just doing stuff and I haven't felt much like getting poetic in print.

Went to a solstice celebration on Wednesday. Nice people and it was really groovy. Drove back alongside a sun setting in colours of pink and orange reflecting on the blue water. If beauty could kill, I'd be dead by now.

Today I went in to Digby with Simone .. we went down by the docks and watched a fishing boat being unloaded. Big fish .. cod, pollock and halibut they said it was. And then tonight there was a benefit for Les and for Norma here in town .. both of them have cancer so their friends came out and raised some money to help them with money to live on. It's a good community that way.

Tomorrow I think I'll head down to the French Shore, which is the other side of Digby. Still a lively Acadian culture down there and it looks like a cool place to explore. And then tomorrow night, my next door neighbour Robin is opening her new art gallery. She has two themes in her show -- one is focussed on storms and has lots of blacks and greys. The other theme is world domination by Mickey Mouse with some very critical things to say about American culture. There's some really good stuff there in a dark kinda way. I'll post some pictures tomorrow.

Another thing that's very cool -- I offered to do an information session on starting a community radio station and the idea is really catching on. Turns out there are several groups along the Fundy coast who have been thinking along these lines.

Oh, it is indeed a time of adventure and new possibilities.
