Oh give me land lots of land under starry skies above don't fence me in Let me ride through the wide open country that I love don't fence me in Let me be by myself in the evening breeze Listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees Send me out forever but I ask you please don't fence me in Just turn me loose let me straddle my old saddle underneath the western skies On my cayuse let me wander over yonder till I see the mountains rise I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences Gaze at the moon until I lose my senses Can't look at hobbles and I can't stand fences don't fence me in
Well, well well... aren't you folks the most clever of clever?! I love all of these. And I have to say, Free Range Buddhas need to be protected. (And I want to hear the Buddhist version of Home on the Range.)("Where seldom we laugh, on this cool eightfold path...")
There is no way I can top any of these so I'm just going to say namaste...
In December of 2007, after many years on the west side of Los Angeles (and at least a third of those years spent stuck in traffic on Pico Boulevard) my family settled into a happy little house in South Pasadena. This daily blog covered almost 5 years as I put down roots in my new home town -- and almost 5 more as I settled in and became a South Pas old-timer. Here it is...my time capsule of South Pasadena.
You can always find the blog at its original address:

Aah, well. Looking down the hill @ ah Buddha, looking up the hill.
Or, just a buddha put out to pasture.
Buddha's Easement
Buddha Remains Present to Irregularities
Buddha's Dog Run
Hm, is it like a shrine?
Justin Timberlake's newest video - "Buddha in a Box."

"DON'T FENCE ME IN"
Oh give me land lots of land under starry skies above don't fence me in
Let me ride through the wide open country that I love don't fence me in
Let me be by myself in the evening breeze
Listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
Send me out forever but I ask you please don't fence me in
Just turn me loose let me straddle my old saddle underneath the western skies
On my cayuse let me wander over yonder till I see the mountains rise
I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
Gaze at the moon until I lose my senses
Can't look at hobbles and I can't stand fences don't fence me in
Take the straight path to enlightenment.
I prefer the free-range Buddhas
Foreclosure prevention
The garden of compassion.
I am cracking up over the captions - esp. SusC's free-range... hee-hee.
The Vigilant Buddha, as opposed to the Vigilante Buddha.
All Knowing; All Seeing; Protector of the Universe; and this small hillside backyard.
Bhudda takes a bathroom break.
Free range Buddha gets my vote.
Altho the Cole Porter reference and lyric was also made me laugh.
Skate down the roof...Grind the fence...Into Buddha...
...Hospital!
Free Range Buddha wins hands down.
Free range Bhudda wins hands in lap.
Buddha's Dog Run has my vote but there were so many great ones I can't even name 'em. You guys are so creative. I guess it's a California thing.

With the addition of Dixie Jane's song,
EAST MEETS WEST.
A very unusual place to put Buddha in!! Have a good sunday, Laurie!!

Until tomorrow!
