Framework

Odd August (6-day week!) <- click to get current month

I have of late, but wherefore I know not, lost all my mirth, forgone all custom of exercises, and, indeed, it goes so heavily with my disposition that this goodly frame, the Earth, seems to me a sterile promontory; this most excellent canopy, the air, look you, this brave o’erhanging firmament, this majestical roof, fretted with golden fire–why, it appeareth nothing to me but a foul and pestilent congregation of vapors.

What a piece of work is a man, how noble in reason, how infinite in faculties, in form and moving how express & admirable; in action how like an angel, in apprehension how like a god: the beauty of the world, the paragon of animals–and yet, to me, what is this quintessence of dust?

Inyo National Forest

Resting at the Pass to Papoose Flat – 9/16/2016
I finally made it on motorcycle (but almost didn’t escape)

more to be here posted soon – Desert Adventure as a Slide Show

Eastern Sierra in the far distance. Back in 2007, M & I hiked all day in the scorching heat trying to reach Papoose Flat, where those little sharp peaks are in the distance (left of center). Had to turn around because the sun was beginning to set. Made it back to the car just in time before our water ran out.

Pit Stop at Starbucks

On his way from Nevada to the Raceway at Laguna Seca in California.

The wheel is driven or forced by means of its engine or motor. The energy is not in the wheel which is passive to this driving agent. So it is with every manifestation of energy; and with every human motivation – it has its human impulse or impelling motive to impart motion.

THE WORD – A PHILOSOPHY (1958) by Edna Sarah Beardsley (re: power)

“In the face of the danger which confronts our time, no individual retains, or can hope to retain, the right of personal choice which free men enjoy in times of peace.” –FDR (1940)

Saturday Morning Santa Cruz

Made it there just in time to see everyone take off without me.

But, I’ve my own group: Electric Future


Note: The above movie runs fine in Chrome, a bit problematic in Safari, and for some reason in FireFox only the video shows up, without the audio/sound. On my iPad it does not run at all!

P.S. It’s a good thing I didn’t go. While riding along a dirt backroad, ignoring signs, the group had an irate landowner pull a gun on them – a situation that tied up the excursion for hours and got the police involved.
