¿Cómo has estado? Hay un gran problema con Vive Minnesota, como ya sabes. No han pagado a ninguno de los músicos. ¡Muy mal organizado! De todos modos, ¡espero verte la próxima semana en Conga!
Hola Sachiko - I hope springtime is blossoming in MN! I am still in Mexico until end of August. Last week I finished a small mural here, on a patio wall where I am living, and have been showing my paintings weekly at an outdoor art market. I miss my friends in Minneapolis - but I am happy to be here! Nos vemos cuando regreso. hasta luego - Jim
