REPORT
(because everyone is sick of it) 
from
CALIFORNIA
with 
DOLPHINS
December 17th to January 1, 2014   The Recap   my domestic life
Can't scare up a rain drop
a bit too much high tide
not enough low tide
with lots of seaweed bouquets
miles and miles with Nico and Ray-Man
a paucity of sea glass 
but 
an abundance of sand and odors
night time visitors
WHO'S eating the dog food?
gophers and gopher holes
watering the weirdo plants 
and 
cooking spot prawns
with pasta and salad
un peu trop de 
DUOLINGO
VIVE LA FRANCE
et 
an addiction to 
House of Cards
persimmons...tangerines...pomegranates...limes 
and all those Xmas lights everywhere 
the warrior Gods are not impressed
nor is Buddha








Big High Tide

Three trees + Pool
