Yes we have settled back into Squaw Lake and how lazy are we? Just sitting around experimenting with my new oven, eating the results and taking pictures of other people's kayaks rather than taking ours out. Well we'll get her out some day this week, I hope.
On sad note, my teen idol has passed away. David Bowie was recently described as the Picasso of pop. He was an innovative, visionary, and restless artist.
He turned pop in a new direction in 1972 with the introduction of his alter ego Ziggy Stardust. Glam rock was the starting point, but Ziggy was much more than an eyeliner-wearing maverick: he was a truly theatrical character, anticipating 1980s androgyny and today's discussions around a transgender spectrum.
He was a great singer, songwriter, performer, actor, producer and collaborator. But beyond all that, David Bowie was quite simply, quite extraordinarily, cool.
