Oh how I love my walks
In this issue of my ranting you will find about the controversy between the Russian olive and the cottonwood, the awesomeness that is the hidden city in my park, and even a special bonus, my recipe for washing clothes in our bathtub.

Meditations of a Blanket
I ended up staying up all night. The early morning light was streaming through the air, making everything look soft and wonderful. The world was beautiful. A new day was beginning.

But I read his book during the formative years of my life and this has shaped the way I live and love today. Abbie Hoffman was a man of passion and a man ( Read more... )
