First tune from the radio in the new year: Smetana, Overture to The Bartered Bride.
Crow was the first bird of the new year. Crow was the second bird of the new year. The first bird that was not a crow was a blue jay. Rough, strong birds for a year that will need roughness and strength. Intermittent shimmers of snow.
Turned on the TV thinking to catch a bit of the Rose Parade, discovered that fourteen died in New Orleans last night when somebody rammed a truck through the crowd. They’re calling it a terrorist attack.
