My Ronda (Circa 1995)

OK, I had to dig them up. Initially I thought I'd lost them but I found them in a big box I hadn't looked in since 2002. The pictures date from 1995 (easy to remember because that's the year my oldest daughter was born). Digitalizing them I decided to play with the "old photo" look available on my camera (haven't played with it much until now). So 1995 looks like 1895. I thought I'd taken a photo of the "Rilke Driving School" (I saw the car) but apparently I didn't. Certainly Ronda was a fave place of the poet-without-a-home. I don't know that he ever learned how to drive.

Ronda, Spain , a photo by jensscholz on Flickr. And reading about Don Quixote and the Sierra Morena have made me think of my trip to Ronda, Spain. Would love to go back. (I was too lazy to dig up my own photos of Ronda.)
