Enga mellom fjella: where from across the meadow, poems sing from mountains and molehills.

Enga mellom Fjella




Sentinel

         Marked
                   as if you own me
I bow before the Bitterroots
and just like you
                   my rocky soil, my withered grass
                   lays prey to the empty sky.

ME:

Well, first there was the frenetic week of editing and posting almost 300 photos at facebook.

Then last week my left leg (the former "good" one) lay me low. Pain! No swelling or bruising but with my history of blood clots...

My appointment is 9/9.

On Wednesday last I went to the Roxy to watch the French film Stranger at the Lake... L'inconnu du lac (2013) ...a murder thriller. Hitchcockian in some ways. Mixed emotions as to what worked or didn't.

Really liked Pierre Deladonchamps as Franck and Patrick d'Assumçao as Henri.

Saturday I went with Joyce to the Vaudeville show in Phillipsburg. Extremely well done. I was impressed with Thain Bertin and how he sang "Figaro". Also loved the duet of "Poisoning Pigeons in the Park" with Reid Reimers in 7 inch heels pirouetting in a pink frilly dress and pink parasol. He's tall to begin with! With heels easily over 7'.

I did get to connect with Nick who begins Law school this week. Gave him the suits I've saved for him; one less item on my check list.

On my list: phone issues remain. Must get rid of phone. Did call my mother and aunt though. Keeping in touch is important.

The weather was rainy and cool, even cold, for a few days. Now summer will return for a brief run. Fire Season is over... thank God. I'll be able to go outside and breathe this autumn.

September forecast is colder than normal but this is Western Montana and we get caught between NW monsoons (think Oregon and Washington) and Canadian wintry blasts. Hard to say which we'll get. If we are on the line there will be snow in the mountains... there has already been some north and east of here.

The break in the heat meant that my room finally cooled down and I even got to wear pajamas!
