Mexico, New Mexico and Texas all from the back yard






Saturday, today............................might indeed be a day to note some......................"Random Specific Thoughts about some odd items. On a counter top are samples of soon to be new counter tops. . An orange peel, and left over from this weeks long car trip and then some items from the garden, and a book just sitting on the counter. It was a long week buying a house in El Paso. From the back yard of the house you can see Mexico. New Mexico and Texas. On a more random note this week I only looked at the TV twice. One night Johnny Cash from 1969 was a re run. He sang Man in Black. Then last night a movie called "Tender Mercies" caught my attention. A song about a White Dove made me think some. Black for Johnny C. was about "standing out" with concern. The song about the White Dove was about Goodness coming upon us. To lighter moments for the week did indeed have fuel for thought........................ Johnny C. When you think about it you find it is mostly just black and white.

Man in Black Song words

Well, you wonder why I always dress in black,Why you never see bright colors on my back,

And why does my appearance seem to have a somber tone.Well, there's a reason for the things that I have on

.I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down,Livin' in the hopeless, hungry side of town,

I wear it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime,But is there because he's a victim of the times.

I wear the black for those who never read,Or listened to the words that Jesus said,

About the road to happiness through love and charity,Why, you'd think He's talking straight to you and me.
