NEHALEM, OREGON

Two touring bands, Ramon & Jessica, as well as The Light Switches pose for a photograph in front of a fence with a dog on a rural property east of Manzanita, Oregon the day after playing a concert on the top floor of a barn.

RAMON & JESSICA W/ MICHAEL MUSIKA AND BLACK DOG // PENTAX IQZOOM 90 MC 400 ISO

I have fond memories of this tour, both musically and in terms of the friendship. I remember being a neurotic, pain in the ass too, in some regrettable ways. I’ve realized subsequently the source of that behavior and have aimed to be a better person. This was a lovely day, and a great dog that I really enjoyed meeting. Dina and Jesse seem happy in the picture. We’re trying to use this website as a map, and as I write this entry, somewhere near this farm is a potential place to move. We’ll see. One thing I’m learning is to keep everything moving and the camera rolling and the bats flying.
