“Finding the New in the Old Homestead”
we left texas two years ago, the
flat coastal plain around galveston
the rough and rolly hills and
byways in austin –
ventured
out
onto the mountains and snows of
vermont
then left there also
to the
wonders of paris –
what could we possibly find new in austin texas?
that is our challenge, and we gladly
accept it 😉
bridge walks reminding us of tiny
cobblestone streets in paris
and tucked away paths
in the woods
of vermont
friends, old and young
2000 and 8000 miles away
so much like friends
now
2 and 8 blocks
away
the differences and connections
more than the newest
place to eat
are bringing us our new year

Austin, We’ve Back!
a quick post to say we’re back in the U.S.A.!
still waiting to move into a set place, have our vermont things sent to us, and hopefully next week have our internet etc set up
i picked this image cause it reminded me of my paris post about small streets, big treats –
this is the pedestrian walk that runs along an extremely busy river crossing bridge in austin (among many), the First Street Bridge –
and this is about an hour and a half before the new year’s fireworks
we went back to our room shortly after this shot and watched the display from our room at an extended stay, but we got a nice first-night-out walk, and re-acquaintance with austin
hopefully, my mid jan, i’ll be up and running, have our furniture and things, and begin to settle down
best wishes ya’ll 😉
and the best of new years!
adan

Ah, the art of finding the rich amidst the familiar. A time away can freshen the mind/eye — well, for a while. The art of joyous attention is arduous!
Welcome back! I thought you were permanently in Paris. Do you have a bio page? Sounds interesting.
