These are pictures I took with Susan's digital camera at Stroud's Run State Park and also Burr Oak State Park. It's pretty incredible to see those moss and fungi up close. It's like a whole new world!

Bummin' Around

I'm so over work on the real. My last day was Friday. Goodbye to AmeriCorps! It was a pleasure serving you, America - eliminating poverty and the like - but I must be goin' now. Well I'm on my way. I don't know where I'm going. I'm taking my time but I don't know where. I awoke early this morning before the sun had risen. A faint glow could be seen in the eastern sky and only the most brightest stars were still alight in the sky. I walked off the porch (where I'd been sleeping) and looked for the moon, but the moon had sunk too far west and was blocked by the neighbor's house (the same neighbor who keeps complaining to the city that our chicken coop is on their property). Chris, me roomie, told me of a lunar eclipse, but because the moon wasn't in view, I went back to the couch on the porch and lay down watching the dawn get on. Later in the morning, after I'd been to the bank and the post office to arrange for my impending trip - oh, did I m

I know this is a long post, but if you break it up into two or three sections, it's a pretty managable read.

Boy, I must like blogging late at night because here it is midnight and I'm on the computer typing away. Keeping my roommates awake; the rucus of nimble little fingers on a particularly clicky keyboard. But, it's not particularly the night time blogging keeping me awake. I've just been having such a good time in the late night. Last night, for example, I made a cape from an old wool army blanket. It's a pretty neat thing. It's semicircle in shape with another smaller semicircle cut out for the neck. I made the neckhole too big, alas. But, I believe it's beautiful all the same. And, a mighty fine cape. I'll put a hood on that thing, then I'll be ready for the woods. Got my poncho (see Lost and Found ). Got my backpack (see Oh, I've been in a place ... ). Got my sleeping bag (see 'H' is for 'hairy' man ... ). Now I got my cape. I also got bugs on me right now! Some multitude of litte creepers. They bite like fleas. I had fleas once in h

Thinking About Waves

We go out to Lake Jordan some Sundays, for a kayaking adventure. This past weekend, we took a tandem out for a couple hours, myself, Susan, and Benji in his life vest (he actually has two!). Across the channel, off to the west, around the big bend of the shore. We pulled into a little beach and we all jumped out of the kayak for a swim in the very warm water. The lake bottom, all clay and silt, was squishy with dead sticks popping out. In the middle of the lake, boats cut big waves into the water that slowly radiated out to us. Nearer, the surface was not exactly smooth, but crinckled with lots of high frequency little waves. As the two waves combined, I was transfixed watching the resultant sum. I thought about WiFi and wondered if CCK modulation - which I've been reading about lately and is quite complicated - does something like waves on Jordan Lake.  Gawd, I love waves. The pink wave sums a deep, slow wave (blue) plus a small, fast wave (red). Courtesy of http://www
