Purple flowers, Albuquerque – starting over – 01

Multiple trips, and one relocation, to Albuquerque have resulted in a mess of counting for purple flower photos. An attempt to start over seems more effective than an effort to reconcile existing efforts.

A verse of a song

Where has all the money gone? Through hands passing.
Where has all the money gone? We want to know.
Where has all the money gone? Gone to grifters every bit.
When will we ever learn? When we will ever learn?
