Don't worry. Even though nobody reads this blog, I haven't given up on it. I'm just taking a break. Project 300 really burned me out, so my solution was to take a lengthy road trip. I drove to Alabama, then turned back. The original plan was to go to Savannah, Georgia. Next trip, maybe.
I'm still trying to figure out how to follow up Project 300. I thought that some kind of general concept would hit me somewhere in west Texas or in the Mississippi panhandle. I was wrong. I'll come up with something. Before I left, the last thing I wanted to do was write another piece of music. Here we are a month later and I'm really looking forward to it. I only need to determine what kind of music I need to write and how much of it needs to get done before I can declare victory.
Until then, I'll leave you with a few of my dandy cell phone videos.
This is a sand shark at the New Orleans Aquarium (pardon the noise; the place was absolutely packed).
I took a swamp tour in Houma, Louisiana and we got to feed alligators. This one is only about four feet long. All the huge alligators had other engagements that day.
This is just a view of the cypress swamp off the back of the boat. The guy doing all the shouting is the guide. He was calling alligators.
I'll post again soon.

- I'm a guy who used to write lots and lots of music. My lack of success became a little troubling, so now I write about Belltown and photograph squirrels. You got a problem with that?
