in watermelon sugar the deeds are done

richard brautigan is my favorite author. I was introduced to him by my father when i was in highschool. My dad would read to me poetry from the pill vs the springhill mining disaster....
I have read almost every brautigan book in print.
I always loved the covers..brautigan was such a goofy nerdling old man..(my favorite) and he was tortured by his love of liberated women with long legs and long hair.
he lived in san francisco in the 60's and wrote alot about the bay area...i was romanced at 14 and always wanted my san francisco to have the aftertastes.

more birthday

birthday!!!

pow wow wow

i wanted to have my own private pow wow birthday with a tee pee and peace pipes, but this month is to damn hectic. so we treated ourselves to a pow wow saturday at the franklin county fair grounds. It was lovely and hot. I bought some hot pink fox faces. Victoria bought a turtle purse.
In san francisco for thanksgiving, there is a very special pow wow on alcatraz island at sunrise. It is a truly unique experience, you are shipped in by ferry and the fog covers the bay with bone chilling vigor. when sun breaks, it is just stunning.
Alcatraz, before it became a notorious prison lock down was land inhabited by native americans, stolen... then given back. Sadly enough the land is quite useless, other than its tourist attractions. America has a very unique way of apologizing for past sins to native peoples, by gifting back much troubled land (mostly deserts). Hawaii is a perfect example.....
