O
ne of my favorite sounds is the soft rustle of a breeze through the leaves of a tree. I’m talking about broad leaves here, like a maple tree, not the evergreens that tend to populate our forests, and whose branches creak and groan in the wind like the ghosts of old washerwomen attending to the laundry. This is a summertime sound when the breezes are low and mild, and the deciduous trees are greenest. Some of my finest memories are tied to this gentle soundtrack, basking in the sun of expired afternoons while the rest of the world hums, crackles and explodes far
out of earshot. What I’m trying to say is that I’m a cheap date, particularly in the summer when my calendar oscillates between large spectacles and quiet reveries. The former is happening on Saturday in Arcata’s Creamery District, and I am sure that I will glide through to down a few of my favorite shellfish like a carefree and scavenging walrus on a bright Arctic day. I’ll probably do my best to avoid the thick of the crowds and am looking forward to the margins of the weekend, where a lot of great shows are going down. Let’s explore, shall we?
