Island Life, Going to market…
Going to the market is always an adventure. I have to be out on the shoreline at around 7 am to get the attention of the market boat as it goes downstream to pick up some regulars at the temple. I luckily learned the two finger whistle to which the driver acknowledges with a wave….
3 dreams; contest, clothes, taxes
1:15 I’m at a University Not sure if I’m just visiting or a student there I’m walking by the science department A fraternity is throwing a party There is a contest and the prize is a all expense paid dinner at this very ritzy restaurant. I know the teacher who says, “I know you aren’t…
“We’re all hallucinating now.”
We were visiting a friend of Donna’s at their huge stone mansion. Gothic comes to mind. I took a walk around the neighborhood. A little boy was running on the sidewalk with a toy M16 pretending to shoot anybody he saw. I jumped up way over him into the trees and came down on the…
Round Robin
I’m 84, Donna is 93. I’m at some festival to perform. Donna stayed home to work in the garden that is now a lush paradise of plants. Once at the festival, we are locked down, again, with another COVID-19 mutation. Most of the performers had already arrived. We all know the drill as we’ve all…

nick-nacks store
Donna is working at a little office/nick-nacks store. The shop is a mess. She’s been buying pizzas from a nearby shop from a guy named Al.I wonder if it’s the same Al that I knew from Murfreesboro. There’s about 6 (or more) large pizza boxes with varying number of slices left in each one but…
Trapping a cow
Speaking of cows… a few nights ago I set a trap for a cow. I saw where they were sneaking into the neighbor’s yard through a hole in the fence. We have suspicions about how the wire happened to be cut to create a hole but that was not really my concern. Since my cow…
Cows, again!
I’m comfortably sleeping in our big cushy bed dreaming of…. What was that sound? I woke but lay very still, listening. There is something in our yard. An interesting thing about Laos is that most all the animals here are truly ‘free range’. When you buy ‘free range’ chicken at the store in the ‘west’…
