j-appleseed: coffee over osage scrap. I spent last weekend with a few friends at the cabin making self bows out of various woods. We established early the first morning that there is a coffee-all-day policy. Coffee over hickory, coffee over yew,… all good, but coffee over osage in the middle of Nowhere, Montana was my favorite.

small fires: write your way to the tree

mkimarnold:

There is a new project; its newness thrills.

It is all possibility.

I make notes, follow unexpected paths. Discover that one idea is linked to another and then I am scurrying around the library at lunchtime, stacking books.

Davey D - Malcolm X- Remembering Our Black Shining Prince (Malcolm meets Fort Minor)

Heard this on the radio a couple nights ago and finally found it online. Mashup of Malcolm X speeches, Fort Minor’s Feel Like Home, on-the-street reactions to Malcolm’s death, and Ossie Davis’s eulogy for Malcolm. Really great.

buffleheadcabin: DRIVE IT LIKE YOU STOLE IT For no practical purpose at all, I wanted to see if I could make a screwdriver into a car key. What fun it would be to impersonate the look of a stolen car with a screwdriver jammed into the ignition! And maybe I could empty my glove box all over the seat so it looks like I was scrounging for spare change and prescription drugs too! Click for high-res photo

Spittlebugs are pests, sucking the sap from garden plants and using it to make their protective, slimy froth.  Eventually they grow into froghoppers.  But while they are in their nymph form, if you gently scoop one out of its foam, you’ll find that it’s weirdly adorable and almost invisibly small.

Prayers for the Earth: Drew, Lady Flame, and I took a walk along Summer St., in Topsham, this afternoon. We came upon this beautiful tribute to Earth created by a lovely couple within the last year. This really struck a chord with me…tranquility is difficult to find in this busy world… (Click on the first photo to enter the slide show for a larger veiw.)
