when i was in second grade, my family relocated for a brief time from NYC to a suburb outside of Houston, Texas. behind our apartment was a big field. back behind that was an imposing barbed wire fence with a sign warning of rattle snakes. being a lover of snakes and other critters, I used to stand at the edge of barbed wire, desperately hoping to get a glimpse of a rattler. It was all I could do not to cross the barbed wire and conduct an all-out search for the deadly and fascinating serpents. on the "safe" side of the field were wonderful "horney toads" and, at dusk, hundreds of jack rabbits--rather impressive creatures of considerable size whose eyes shone in the dark. that field was magic to me--so full of life forms I'd never encountered in the big city. this picture evokes all the wonder and excitement of that time.

One of the many places I chowed down on artery-clogging poutine. I'm pretty sure this place is on St. Laurent in the Quartier Latin.
