Explored the insides of some ancient lava tube caves today with this guy, Ben Schuyler.
Nature is always lovely, invincible, glad, whatever is done and suffered by her creatures. All scars she heals, whether in rocks, water, sky or hearts.
As long as I live, I’ll hear waterfalls and birds and winds sing. I’ll interpret the rocks, learn the language of flood, storm, and the avalanche. I’ll acquaint myself with the glaciers and wild gardens, and get as near the heart of the world as I can.
I drifted about from rock to rock, from stream to stream, from grove to grove. Where night found me, there I camped. When I discovered a new plant, I sat down beside it for a minute or a day, to make its acquaintance and hear what it had to tell. I asked the boulders I met, whence they came and whither they were going.
Midnight hike to one of my favorite NW spots of all time with Brenna Nickels, Victoria Wright & Dan Cole.
The snow is melting into music.

“Bears are made of the same dust as we, and breathe the same winds and drink of the same waters. A bear’s days are warmed by the same sun, his dwellings are overdomed by the same blue sky, and his life turns and ebbs with heart-pulsings like ours and was poured from the same fountain.” ― John Muir
When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the universe.

Once upon a time there was a dear little girl who was loved by everyone who looked at her, but most of all by her grandmother, and there was nothing that she would not have given to the child. Once she gave her a little riding hood of red velvet, which suited her so well that she would never wear anything else; so she was always called ‘Little Red Riding Hood.’
There is a love of wild nature in everybody— an ancient mother-love showing itself whether recognized or not, and however covered by cares and duties.

I live in Seattle WA, write music with my friend, make spoon rings out of the handles of antique silver spoons, and I try to get out and explore where I live as much as possible.
This year, I got a miniature dachshund named Clementine Longbottom. I also got to travel around the country during the summer. I post a lot of photos on Instagram.
Some of the things I like: bon fires, capturing light, typeography, honesty and sushi. I have an email address.
