Boy on a Walk

It's always a good idea to put your Periodic Table T-Shirt on when you walk to Sibley Farm.



Partly I took this because I like the mostly-white heifer in the background--very pretty girl.

She's a white girl.

But I'm living with a white girl.

(that's a punk rock allusion, people)

Rainier: Two Years Ago Today

Up too late.

Waiting for lessons to start.

Dad, Dad...

This is a little late for Father's Day, but today finds me thinking a lot about by Dad. A Ben Gibbard cover of Pedro the Lion fell into my lap, though, and fits the bill.

The River Rock Campout 2010

Another lovely year-end camp-out with the big messy family that is River Rock School has left me suffering from a mild case of Failure To Thrive but a deep appreciation for communal care, deep-into-the-night songs around a campfire, capture-the-flag and, well, the delight of being coaxed out of bed to join a circle of fire watchers, and then riding the night out--bourbon, folk songs, Persian poetry and all--until the banter fades, the sky brightens, and some of us find ourselves a little ragged around the edges.

It was a grand time. If only we could coax Bob, Michele, Zoe and Henry to come to one of these things....
