A walk to a grassy parking lot

This walk came about as a result of the Fall 2010 semester.  We initially visited the old parking lot of a long since close car dealership in order to get a feel for the scale of a garden design we were working on.  The grass outlined polygons in the asphalt and created this puzzle of parking lot.  Nature always finds a way to weave its way into the forgotten crevices of society.  Earlier in the walk, in the neighborhood directly west of UNM's main campus I walked on a street that had no sidewalks...I guess an unnecessary addition to this particular residential street.  This was also the first time I was able to test out the SoundCloud app following an update to the program that allowed it to work on my smart phone.  It was fortuitous because that very day a bird was joyously signaling the first days of spring and his/her enthusiasm was noteworthy.  I also happened upon Merlin's door.  It was a small door on the side of someones backyard fence and I can imagine only a magician being able to fit through such a door...or a cat...named Merlin.
