  5. My system is crashing, but the fault is here not with Mickey’s site. Need a new computer $$$$.

    Nice photo on front page. Who did the calligraphy? Great.

    A day without trees is like a day without air. I don’t have much, but I do have a lot of trees and I love ‘em all.

  6. Beautiful photography and haiku....Lots of trees here too,scattered stands in and about the neighbourhood. I live in a part of town that used to be an orchard back in the early days, so there is lots of fruit for the picking. What I notice most is the bird song...some tree-stands are just rockin’ out the tunes. And I notice the light is different filtered through the leaves and branches, smells mighty good too.
    Andy Goldsworthy is a Scottish artist who travels the world producing beautiful works of art in nature. He has produced a documentary about his work called Rivers and Tides...Here’s part one on youtube… I found the dvd in my local library.

    So much for car free sunday...already seen 2 cars bullying their way down the road! And its only four main roads closed for a few blocks each. There are still plenty of options left to get around....

  7. Yes, Trees are wonderful. We have lots of them.

    This morning at 5am, we were outside between 2 Owls that seemed to be talking to each other.

    Frances, you are lucky having lots of Fruit trees. While growing up, I spent much time sitting in an Apple tree.

  8. Hi Joe, yes I am lucky...the thing I like the most about Andy Goldsworthys’ work is he provides a wonderful example for communicating with the natural world…
    captcha sez Death...as in there is no death only the flowing and transforming thru time?

  12. Friday, 9/23 is an all-star post: a great tree article (plus points for not-on-paper) and two moving photos.

    Tell me again why you don’t have a regular feature on Democracy Now? (Nevermind, I’ll ask them myself.)

    Nice to see everyone. It makes me almost not want to mention Obama telling black people to “stop complainin’ and fight” only a few days after Troy Davis got lynched. I think that about wraps the discovery phase on the Ivy League Oreo charges.

  13. Brian Jones has a great review of Obama and the current administration over at socialistworker.org

  15. Beneficial document helps make frequent advance, appreciate it write about, this pile-up connected with expertise is usually to hold finding out, focus is usually the beginning of money.
