An Alluvial Mine has been discovered within the grounds of Soul Food and it is opening for sturdy miners who know that to find creative gold you have to be prepared to dig deeply.

Images float before my eyes. Moving to the pagan sound.

She was a beautiful dancer and one day we took a trip to a farm where the woman sold vintage clothes and she let Carol and my daughter,Valerie, try on dresses and pose for a variety of pictures. This one of them and seems fitting to put into this Blog in honor of Aletta and the world of dance. Tuesday, July 11, 2006.
