"Have they got an outfit that's red, yellow and orange?" A young Mexican lady asked me once. Well they do now. Out of the mouths of babes. When another of the folks saw it and heard who suggested the color scheme he said, "I thought i noticed a Mexican touch" Most of the jewelry they wear with this dress was made for it specifically. It's smokey crystal and red beads in the necklaces and earrings. Also each Deity has a set of bangles of the same color stones.
Someone told me there would be rain today so i thought that the pedaling might take the indoor form once again. Somehow or other i was going along on the opal cliff and couldn't help but see that the rain that i'd been counting on had turned to sun. So when the last mile had be recorded and it was time for the arati conch to blow, you could see that i was clearly pleased at how the forcaster had been wrong.
They call East Bengal the Radhadesa, call it baby blue. This dress should have gold jewelry and accents but once while the second team was in they decided to use silver. hmmm. But then they changed to gold the next time the Deities wore it. It seems like dancing nights are here again.
