If Wishes Were Horses I Would Ride Ride Ride...

Just back from trip south.

Hooked up with Druid Clare and some fellow SPL escapees -- Honne and Kathy and we're off to the Lavender Ranch --

Lavender stills: indoor and out

Ever onward! to Sac and
the Magical Mystical world of Edgar Rice Burroughs! Ape-men and Martians and  Moon Maids, O, My!

Tom 'Tarzan' Tolley and self celebrating the fact of still being strange and wonderful ourselves....

If you study my eyes you can tell I am actually the love child of Stellan Skarsgaard. Mama Mia!
Gotta love that 'SPAM' shirt of Tom's.

Tim 'Hank' Williams 
patiently waits while pizza cries out for consumption...
Back to the land of Celestino's and homebrew Sierra Nevada Pale Ale of Chico...






...Meanwhile, back at the Ranch...
here's our wee laddie Rocky now a great
strapping Norwegian Fjord Horse! 

Trying out his new macrame' bridle.
Rocky hears the siren's call of spring grass...

  SPRING GRASS!!

I got a ride with this crazy Viking from B.C. who, after antiquing all day, suddenly decided -- at dusk -- to tackle the mountains and go berzerking thru the night on a 6 hour tangent doing 125 the whole way...still got in about 2 a.m...

My Fabulous Singer-Starkey Sister: Helen, myself and Nels of the North.

Home at Last!

Carrie Lynch - If Wishes Were Horses

 Well I was born with a dark cloud above me
A longing deep in my soul
I was raised up right and I know my momma loved me
But I begged her to let me go

I said, "The grass is greener on the other side
Somewhere there's a bluer sky
I won't stop runnin' 'til I'm satisfied
And if wishes were horses, I would ride, ride, ride"

You know, I love you, my true companion
You've been my lifelong friend
But there's a hunger inside me
That I can't abandon 'til I see what's around the bend
   
You know, the grass is greener on the other side
Somewhere there's a bluer sky
I won't stop runnin' 'til I'm satisfied
And if wishes were horses, I would ride, ride, ride

Now I've been a rogue and I've been a rambler
I know too well my sins
I've got the faith of a saint but the soul of a gambler
And a heart like the restless wind


You know, the grass is greener on the other side
Somewhere there's a bluer sky
I won't stop runnin' 'til I'm satisfied
And if wishes were horses, I would ride, ride, ride
Yeah, if wishes were horses, I would ride, ride, ride...

 THE ORBS:
I hadn't noticed them  before. But only over Tom's head and my own! No other fotos have them. -- COOL!
