Xmas lingers…

Christmas doesn’t.

Xmas tree labyrinth–don’t they know it’s February!

I knew a guy once who couldn’t figure out the difference between Christian months and Islamic months–and he damn near lost his life. I wrote a novel about it: Tangier Gardens, try it then buy it @ https://amzn.to/3HLrtyv

Little Sunshine

Sometimes just a little sunshine is all we need.

When the fog and clouds are getting to be… too much…

That is exactly what happened to CJ in Tangier Gardens, he sought clarity. He needed a little sunshine.

Landscape Libretto

Promises not kept.

Every year in the Christmas season, I refresh with Nutcracker Suite—the more traditional librettos of Tchaikovsky’s great work. It takes me on a ride, a light and joyful ride.

That ride on the dancing, story and music is special. Music can by itself take us on a ride. And so can the landscape. 

The greatest national parks in the US and around the world can take us on a ride. I’ll leave the definition of ’taking a ride’ to the readers. Clue: it has nothing to do with mechanical vehicles.

I’ve always felt that the landscape and garden work of landscape architects should be able to take the user on a ride. Like music, like dance, like poetry. Romantic poets, centuries ago, took that ride in nature. Why can’t the work of today’s landscape architects offer that ride to users? Am I dreaming?
