Chrysler New Yorker in Colorado Springs

I've been teaching at Colorado College this month. The recent posts have been photographs made between 3 and 4 in the afternoon when I escape my office at CC to ride a bike around the wonderful neighborhoods adjacent to the campus. Colorado weather, Colorado light,  in October is pretty hard to beat. Unfortunately these completely sane neighborhoods morph into a large,  mean sprawl. Which I blogged about on a Huffington post this week in, The Geography of Lonely. Never have seen so many pawn shops--except maybe in El Paso, Texas another town with a big military population.
        Also passed what looked to be a drive-in mortuary.
Just after I had arrived in Colorado from the Netherlands, a piece of my fiction, Cup of Tea appeared in the (Toronto) Globe & Mail ("Canada's National Newspaper"). It will appear in my short story collection Traveling Light, coming out next summer, but it's also a fragment of a novel-in-progress.
And, BTW, here's a New Yorker (1952?) I came across while biking the 'hood. Very original, I believe.
