it's all black and white

10.7.2012

Another boring sunrise.  And I woke up just in time to see it.  An evening with Dan and his son and his friend from Denver left me in bed an extra hour. 

And down to Pokhara it was to find a travel book which I may or may not like even though it is a Dalyrimple title. 

Well thirty seeds consumed before I headed down and no effects whatsoever.  Who’s kidding who here?  I did feel somewhat ‘grounded’ at moments, sitting for longer than usual periods of time to think.  And what did you think of?  Black and White.  A white and a black buffalo born within ten hours of each other.  It is not uncommon for buffalos to be born white only to change color as they get older I am told by a few.  But a black one being born at about the same time, well there is something there.  Barak Obama.  A black and a white man.  That’s an easy connect. 

 

 

On the way down the trail I met two Chinese ladies and their guide on the way up. ‘Did you see the sunrise?”  Every morning.  If I am really lazy I only need to open the curtains and I can see the sunrise from my bed when I simply raise my head. 

On the way up I met the two coming down and I gave the gal from Shanghai my incorrectly spelled blog address but also gave her my email address if she can’t find it.  ‘Google’ is blocked though in China, right?  Oh yes, the boys in Beijing, I use proxies for everything.  Ya, stay ahead of the boys.  Give me liberty honey or give me death.
