Garden of La Mancha: February 2008
http://gardenoflamancha.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Garden of La Mancha. Wednesday, February 27, 2008. I've been reading a book called The Four Ages of Tsurai, which is a compilation of the European accounts (including one by botanist Archibald Menzies) of the small Yurok village of Tsurai, which was just below the modern town of Trinidad, where I go for internet and library books. Olega’ “where they come.” A place near the end of the present wharf which got its name because objects continually drift ashore there.". Equally exciting is what I can't see.

http://gardenoflamancha.blogspot.com/2008/07/beachcombing.html
Garden of La Mancha. Thursday, July 10, 2008. I spent the Fourth of July with my family at Big Lagoon and Trinidad. There are lots of cool things on the beach for the garden: rocks, driftwood, bleachglass, and what have you. (When I was a kid my mom paid me five bucks to haul a "stepping-stone" down the sand spit of Big Lagoon.) But on the 4th I made a real find. Are echevaria-like succulents that grow on our coast (and inland, and in Mexico). Wikipedia has a nice photo of a healthy specimen. That's a gr...

Garden of La Mancha: Making Marks
http://gardenoflamancha.blogspot.com/2008/09/making-marks.html
Garden of La Mancha. Sunday, September 7, 2008. First there was a weeping beech. Not only is the bark smooth and white (which makes carvings more legible that they would be on say, a black walnut), but the architecture of the tree creates seclusion—a place where one’s not as likely to be caught being a vandal. It’s also interesting to see what people (individuals, couples, maybe even groups) carve when no one else is watching. And what do they carve? Layers upon layers. Sublime. Gardener of La Mancha.

PAST PRESENT. FUTURE. May 15, 2008. Humboldt County.the Land I now call my Home. Arcata. I do love Arcata. I love the people and how they are always so freindly and nice. I love the comfort of walking through the plaza and knowing that everyone is accepted. It doesn't matter how you are dressed or how you fix your hair, all are welcomed and embraced. It sets a peaceful tone that is silent but felt. Native flower bed: corner of plaza across Jacoby Storehouse. About Arcata that I miss when I am gone. Humbo...
