I encountered this fella lurking just outside my apartment door this morning as I left on a morning shopping venture.

The thing was perched on the door jamb of my apartment door when I returned.

Welcome
As I proceed into my mid-life adventures, of travel and relocation, I intend to regularly post updates of my activities, subject to my ability to access the internet.
I also intend to post reminiscences, ruminations and editorial commentary on whatever subject is currently abrading a lesion under my saddle.

Margarita says it’s called an “Esperanza”. Esperanza is “hope” in Spanish… It’s a type of cricket…

Actually, I thought it was a type of Cicada before Margarita told me what it was called here…
