REM - The Great Beyond - 1999

A favorite song of mine from a sad time living in NYC...REM was the soundtrack for me from that time period. I love Michael Stipe...I love how his passion comes through when he sings...it takes over his whole body.
I only saw them once in concert when I was living in LA. I saw them at The Hollywood Bowl, such a great place to see a concert....this song is beautiful even if it is part of a soundtrack...might be worth seeing the film again"Man on The Moon" directed by Milos Foreman...

More to come from this day.


 bad weather to come so we made a mad dash north into the hills. Still just too early. Some trees starting to bloom. but barely....the sky was amazing blue with not a cloud...it was a bit stressful as I could hear sheep bells not too far off...If there are sheep, there are the guard dogs that I really worry about....they can be vicious. Rune was so happy but on alert the whole time.

glowing shoes in the sun.


so crowded.

very crowded every year.

Serge Lama...You could have his whole collection...who is he? Watch the next post as I educate myself.



You could have lunch...I'm having Tartare de Boeuf.

I love this "cave" filled with glass and ceramics. I bought an old plate , oblong, for cheese....
I want to put my cheese on a plate like the french...all the different types of cheese. This place is always PACKED....people hold their little dogs in their arms. A little dachshund and I evaluated a pretty plate with pink morning glories on it. His father was looking in another direction. I let him smell it and we evaluated. I ended up with a different plate that was hard to get at, way in a niche clogged with stuff. . A french woman and I talked the owner through getting at it. It was only 1 euro!
