Nearly two weeks have passed since the move to Golden Beach. I have my table set up with my lamp, lightbox and pencils, currently working on picture book # 4. The most important ingredient is the record player. The soundtrack for this book has so far been Joan Baez, John Lennon, Tom Waits, Elvis Costello and Bruce Springsteen’s first record, which sounds much more like a cross between Dylan and Tom Waits than one would expect. The book is progressing well.

Have you wandered the Esplanade with your binoculars yet? I’m almost sure I saw an azure kingfisher near the powerboat club last year, but it was too shy for me to confirm. There are whimbrels and other waders near the mangroves too when the tide is right.
Also: awesome cow work for our blog – can’t wait for the final version.

Ah but don’t forget the sound of the Golden seabreeze in those trees – always a little mystery there.

Can just hear the music … especially Joan Baez and Tom Waits. Shouldn’t there be a scrabble board in there somewhere?

Yep, the scrabble board is on top of the bookshelf, right next to the records.
