re: fragments in time......

Hello lovers,

hope the end of summer is treating you well, i'm enjoying the shift in the weather to the cooler temperatures these days, six weeks or so of 35c and up was getting a bit much. it was relentless and punishing towards the end of that stint. especially when traveling, it can make a trip that much more grueling. 

below are some fragments from the road, moments in time i would like to remember forever.

that's a great part of my job as an artist, i get to travel and see and do things usually only locals do, but all across the country. a person's fave pub, or swimming spot, or favourite hike, restaurant, book store, etc, etc.

until next time,

cb

a lot of traveling is also waiting. 

the above photo is the glamourous 

spot i waited to transfer buses to lytton.

i've sat in fancy airport lounges 

all over the world raiding booze fridges

before security catches me

but nothing gets more real

than being on the side of the road

it was blazing hot, behind a gas station i found shade 

and plucked away on my guitar

and sipped beer while

watching people bring their

travel dogs to the back to piss and shit

while i noodled away on the gitbox.

this was friends of mine attic space

it is exactly like my grandparents old attic

that has long since burned to the ground

so every morning when i woke up here

i was reminded of my childhood.

bittersweet memories.

this was again at my friends place

and i was sitting outside playing guitar

enjoying the cool mist of the water

and the sounds the drops made on that 

buddhist looking bell 

chiming away with the drops of water

it was peaceful and a great

way to wake up.

this was n'kemcin

where the waters meet

and not far from the spiritual heart

of our territory.

a very special place

and i woke up and walked here every morning

enjoying the sound of the rushing

waters and peaceful quiet.
