Sunday

morning…up Fossil Hill after breakfasts for dogs and us we had a call for a poetry reading

at afternoon’s end to which almost all Libre, a paltry five people, showed up, which was fine nonetheless…Liat Meyer, about to motorcycle back to Milwaukee, read strong new work as the guitarist, discreet enough to realize this wasn’t a beatnik scene, stayed mostly quiet.

Next day a strange being, no connection but maybe an ant lion nymph, appeared on our screen

just before we made our long-postponed visit to Dean’s

studio,

Jim merrily chainsawing away [in] the woods on the way, heard but not seen.

Architextures

and onwards; the Knoll again Tuesday

and that afternoon, wandering the wooded lower slopes, we chanced upon scattered fragments of  cast glass cast away long ago but perhaps now of sufficient interest to bring home to

contemplate, perhaps reconstitute.  Next morning the Inkies sought snakes [not shown]

in the grasses and in stumps other oddities.  A World of Wonders so

in the afternoon back for more glass, the findings ending up two legs short [10 of 12].

Thursday we made a long-anticipated trip to Walsenburg; in addition to the usual rounds*

I began to locate the “noodle paintings” for documentation** prior to a helpful session

with Jyette Helps, PT, to address ongoing issues from the Chair Events and then a most encouraging return to Legends in La Veta***with our friends Adrienne and Mary,

a brief visit up the street,

and the road**** home.

*Those “rounds” being fuel, dump, a detour to the north of town for propane exchange and Safeway.

**Finding several – three large triptychs and several 5×5′ examples; the most anywhere. This one, too…60×30″, 1980 – 2004;

***Chicken enchiladas with VERY fresh chiles in green sauce signaled a fortuitous return to their Cerillos roots after a most disenchantingly bland experience a year ago.

****Formerly and ever known as Yellowstone.
