    I wonder if the taggers looked down to see what they were standing in when they placed the writing on the wall? Gooshy white wash. Ha ha ha ha.
    Be well taggers.

    Peaceful. Sounds like the bay near our home. I can listen for hours. Thanks CRC!

    (SITTIN’ ON) THE DOCK OF THE BAY
    - written by Otis Redding and Steve Cropper
    - lyrics as recorded by Otis Redding December 7, 1967, just three
    days before his death in a plane crash outside Madison, Wisconsin
    - #1 for 4 weeks in 1968

    Sittin’ in the mornin’ sun
    I’ll be sittin’ when the evenin’ come
    Watching the ships roll in
    And then I watch ‘em roll away again, yeah

    I’m sittin’ on the dock of the bay
    Watching the tide roll away
    Ooo, I’m just sittin’ on the dock of the bay
    Wastin’ time

    I left my home in Georgia
    Headed for the ‘Frisco bay
    ‘Cause I’ve had nothing to live for
    And look like nothin’s gonna come my way

    So I’m just gonna sit on the dock of the bay
    Watching the tide roll away
    Ooo, I’m sittin’ on the dock of the bay
    Wastin’ time

    Look like nothing’s gonna change
    Everything still remains the same
    I can’t do what ten people tell me to do
    So I guess I’ll remain the same, yes

    Sittin’ here resting my bones
    And this loneliness won’t leave me alone
    It’s two thousand miles I roamed
    Just to make this dock my home

    Now, I’m just gonna sit at the dock of the bay
    Watching the tide roll away
    Oooo-wee, sittin’ on the dock of the bay
    Wastin’ time

    (whistle)

    This is my FAVORITE meditation so far :)

    I did eat at Canter’s the other day and closed my eyes for a little bit to listen to the sounds though.
