April 10

Today is the birthday of Niels Dahl-Jenson. Niels and I became inseperable friends when I moved to Santa Cruz way back in the day. Motorcycle rides, music, hanging out drinking coffee. When I think back to living in SC there's no way for me to picture it in my head without Niels. Then I moved to SoCal and he moved to Denmark. We kept in touch for a year (or more?) and then... I don't remember how things began to dwindle. Maybe the atlantic ocean just sucks postcards and good thoughts into its MidAtlantic Shelf. I bet there are loads of unread mail piled high there. Nevertheless, I can't pass a Tenth of April without thinking of Niels and what a great friend he was to me.
