forest

A cell tower with a typical foliage camouflage to appear as a tree. It occurred to me that the electric forest we‘ve built is intertwined with the forests that were already here.

precious

Dark clouds with sunshine lining and power lines criss-crossing. The question is which is more precious, the sun or the powergrid? Dark clouds with sunshine lining and power lines criss-crossing. The question is which is more precious, the sun or the powergrid?

Closeup of pyramid stud on metal sink rail with corrosion and grime. It looks a little like a life-size pyramid on a desolate highway, if you squint. Okay, maybe not as much as I had hoped.

“Okay, they just said something. Right, prepare a response to the worst possible interpretation. Everything is riding on this. Ready…aim…”


On Wednesday’s ride the glider experienced an unplanned rapid depressurization event of the rear surface contact component—a flat back tire, yes, for the second time in as many weeks. Now the question is, do we spring for the tannus liner, or do go with a slime lined tube? More soon…
