~Words By Freddie Mercury~

Is this the real life,
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide
No escape from reality.
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies and see.
I'm just a poor boy
I need no sympathy,
Because I'm easy come, easy go,
Little high, little low.
Any way the wind blows
Doesn't really matter
To me!


I pulled the Ford truck to a stop.
Got out of the cab, but left the radio on.
I wanted to hear some music tonight.
Grabbed my camera and my hat.
I shut the door and started walking.
About 100 yard away was the edge of the mesa.
Which overlooked a small river in a canyon.
On the other side of the valley was this sight.
Took off the lens cap and stuck it in my pocket.
Checked all the camera vitals on the readout screen.
I put the view finder to my eye and searched the horizon.
Oh my, that is so beautiful, I think I found my image.
What the heck is that sound riding on the wind?
Oh yea, I left the truck radio on and cranked up.
Thank you Freddie, the lyrics really fit the moment.
I really hope you can feel the feeling, too!

Even when you are looking inversely from the setting sun,
and 40 minutes after it went below the horizion,
the exhibition is really awesome. Oh yes, Arizona!

Thanks for joining me,
and Freddie!
