learning reflection

 in salida

there wee hints of rains

that swept over

 there were rooftops

 a reminder "we are here" on the hill

across the river from town

and how really dry this high desert is

 this place, richard's old shop

 i went into every day

and worked

 and i just made samples

and samples

 and journaled

 i would see this early

and be reminded

 and cook up a few plants

in roberta's pots

 tragically stained

 origami book

rice grass

more samples

shop door

another shop door

habu paper and silk

moroshifu

i made a new stump loom

or two

susan's yard/garden

terraphilia guesthouse

and here.

~~~

i'm settling back into the north

at first my skin was grateful

and i have also

packed my classroom and my office for a move.

mowed the grass twice!

caught up on sleep

rejoiced in the lightning bugs

have been tickless (so far)

seen friends and heard the news

that diary page above

is now thread

waiting to be woven.

i was without my macbook

for three days,

so i've been a little quiet here.

but i'm back!
