It keeps happening that peeps see my camera and then tell me about theirs
or show me phone photos they store in their devices.
For instance, that taxi driver the other night.
And my friend, the backpacker/fly fisherman Derek.
Back to bed.
But first things first.

I Get the Blues, Someone Once Said
I get the blues baby
remembering things long ago
Sometimes I get that lonesome feeling
thinking ‘bout Rambling Rose
When Uncle John’s Band was playin
my heart was in repose
I never knew what love meant then
but that’s the way it goes
I got the blues baby
trying to understand why
What I thought that I was missing
or was it all just a lie
Forlorn and empty handed
waiting for pie in the sky
Counting the days and minutes
‘til the day that I would die
I still get the blues sometimes
though I’m with a good woman now
We’ve been many a year together
many years life has endowed
And I’m still not all that sure
how that has all played out
Life can be so fleeting
but love is more rare somehow
I get the blues oh baby
those old feelings will get me down
Though I know it’s temporary
I still get the blues somehow
Don’t care much about status
or even a night on the town
I try to cherish the high times
when sometimes they roll around
I’ll get the blues baby
when thinking ‘bout way back when
Was a woman that I knew then
was more than just a friend
Though I rarely think about her
how sweet when things began
She didn’t care that she broke my heart
it went badly in the end
I get the blues baby
remembering things long ago
Sometimes I get that lonesome feeling
thinking ‘bout Rambling Rose
When Uncle John’s Band was playin
my heart was in repose
I never knew what love meant then
but that’s the way love goes

Thanks for that sweet poem.
Sentimental old slobs, that's us.
I was just this morning thinking about what a fine and unique feeling it was to hold my baby's hand the very first time.
Of course I remember it well.
It was at a Del Shannon/Zombies concert in Merced, 1965.
We were let off in front of the HS gym, had to walk 'bout 100 yds and it was only natural to clasp hands, me on the left, she on the right.
Any blues in our future were not apparent then, naturally.
Eventually, she ran away in a way, and I hid out, in a way.

Thanks for setting things straight.
Reminds me of my nephew who is a guitar man

I realize a lot of folks are out.
On the town or out in nature or just "out."
Some of us may "power through."
