I've been staying in a studio apartment cut into the side of a hill on Scenic Road in Fairfax, California. Fairfax isn't your usual small town. Just today we passed a yard sale that had—along with the usual detritus of wooden mug stands, outdated electronics, ugly framed mini-prints of ideal landscapes, computer speakers, old bicycles—it had four guitars! This is a town of long-haired musicians. Long-haired not in the sense of "long-haired music"—a term people of my generation used to name classical music. In this case, I'm using the adjective "long-haired" to describe the large population of musicians, most of whom play guitar and have long hair. Fairfax boasts live music every night of the week. It's a small town with a big Art. Walking along Scenic Road late this afternoon I saw art of a different kind when I noticed Pumpkin Man or is it Pumpkin Woman? I had to take a picture of it and the pumpkin patch from which he/she hatched.
