tonight

My head is swirling with anticipation about tonight's Bjork show at the Riverside Chapel. The last time I was this happy and excited was probably when I discovered how beautiful the earth is, back in 1998, when I left my worries about love, and life, behind and just wanted to feel something bigger, outside of me, so I managed to put together a trip to Iceland, alone.



it turned out to be an amazing trip, for many "big" reasons, and zillions of small ones....... I can't even articulate them here, they have managed to fill my head as I try to pick out which pair of drab shorts to go with which drab t-shirt I will wear to the performance. I'll share a few pictures, but you will never know their full meaning, their impact, without taking a dive with me into my soul......



me, a bench, and the Arctic Ocean at 10:30 at night in Husavik,


that's Dettifoss... Europe's largest falls ( the little dots near the top are people..)




Gullfoss, where I thought seriously about diving in, I was so overwhelmed with it's beauty......




Jokulsarlon, a lake of icebergs, on the south end of Vatnajokull, the world's 2nd largest icecap.
