do you bring back little remembrances of special places you have been? sometimes it's a postcard, certainly a photo, maybe a little tchotchke bought in a store. maybe a very portable bit of art. For years I have been marking these special places with an item that fits in a pocket. in the southwest I started a very small container or pot collection in which I would hide things found on trails. smooth rocks. a eucalyptus button, a feather. something precious that spoke of the place we had been. tonight when I could sleep not and got up for a short massage in the hot tub.... I decided to try another you tube video with clean but uncombed hair. I found myself in front of a shelf of zuni fetishes we have collected over the past 30 years. and one particular place came flooding back at 2 am. i shall fall asleep again thinking of the magic that is Acoma New Mexico. Night all.
