walk through the cities

flaura in the fall

not all is quite dead. there is even some green in trees, shrubs and grass. those trees that are turning explode in different shades of yellows, reds and oranges. some late bloomers are still around too. the air is crisp and it is very chilly, a reminder of the even colder months ahead.

sometimes we walk down the same streets and run into things that we normally wouldn't want to think about. ian visited us last spring and saw some of these things...

enclosed venetian inspired courtyard

waltz away into the barn

songs that play in your head and repeat over and over again

no sun spots forecasted for this week

but there were plenty of falling stars at Galliano's Spring-2010 show

a warm welcome to all for fall

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Fila BJ Borg
Borg is widely regarded as one of the greatest players in the sport. He won 11 Grand Slam singles titles between 1974 and 1981. In March of 2009 The Vintage Aficionado named him World’s No. 1 in terms of vintage tennis shirts. Luke Wilson’s character in The Royal Tannenbaums was loosely based on Borg, but his style was an exact match. Despite being the most reproduced tennis shirt on the planet, the originals continue to fetch top dollar.

I'm not in love, so don't forget it
It's just a silly phase I'm going through
And just because I call you up
Don't get me wrong, don't think you've got it made
I'm not in love, no-no (It's because...)
I like to see you, but then again
That doesn't mean you mean that much to me
So if I call you, don't make a fuss
Don't tell your friends about the two of us
I'm not in love, no-no
(It's because...)
(Be quiet, big boys don't cry)
(Big boys don't cry)
I keep your picture upon the wall
It hides a nasty stain that's lyin' there
So don't you ask me to give it back
I know you know it doesn't mean that much to me
I'm not in love, no-no (It's because...)
Ooh, you'll wait a long time for me
Ooh, you'll wait a long time
Ooh, you'll wait a long time for me
Ooh, you'll wait a long time
I'm not in love, so don't forget it
It's just a silly phase I'm going through
And just because I call you up
Don't get me wrong, don't think you've got it made, ooh
I'm not in love, I'm not in love...

darkness obscures as night creeps in
