This is the printable cover for Padden Drift.
Since I use it to make labels, it's tailored to my printer and browser (IE7) settings. It might not look or print as nicely on your PC.
I suggest you try a print preview and/or low-ink draft print before trying to print actual labels.
Make sure you configure your browser to print backgrounds, or the images won't print.
Set your left/right printer margins to 0.75 and your top/bottom margins to 0.50.
Lake Padden and Padden Creek are very close to me. They're big enough to harbor critters and for us to enjoy every once in a while, even though they're not exactly awe-inspiring. I don't regard them as destinations or goals in themselves; they're more like pleasant hors d'oerves.
Sometimes I feel "adrift" on them. Which one, though? Am I floating in lazy, comfortable circles on Lake Padden? Or rushing down Padden Creek towards the ocean? Can I move myself from the lake to the stream, or vice versa? Or am I trapped? By what?
Is this water metaphor clunky? Am I not trying hard enough to polish these liner notes? These albums? Any of my creations? Am I stuck at a personal "good enough" level, a local maximum?
Deep thoughts for such a shallow modest album! It's my first set of "completely new" songs since Back Up (2002). As usual, the main instrument is the Triton, accompanied by vocals on "Mix Mix Mix" and "Pudding Draught", and faint guitar on "M Day". And as usual, there's nothing epic here, just a collection of pleasant little moments.
