prune picker

This is the blog of a prune picker. (Native born Californian) Retired oilfield. I am an old man. I blog a lot about my body and getting old. As I approach death life gets more interesting. More interesting is not good. I still drive. I attend sports, music, and civic events. I am writing my memoirs. I attend swim class three times a week. Some of my blogs might be interesting. A lot of my blogs are silly and trivial. None are very long.

Benjamin Alire Saenz. Poet and Author.

I attended a lecture by Benjamin yesterday afternoon at the Port Townsend Writers Workshop. I enjoyed his talk very much. Benjamin lives in El Paso. His home is about a mile from the border. I thought that it was interesting that I drove from Louisiana to Washington to listen to a talk by a man from Texas. He enlightened me about the art of writing as well as life along the border. Both subjects are of interest to me.
