The Silence of Moments
....this passion of the wood that sits before my eye as i,
has never stopped sharing the breathing of my circular quest,
and were i to give momentum to praise found in heavens sky,
then just so shall be also be this silence that bequeaths my best….
....in the silence of moments such as this,
there is known the more of power,
then all the words that have ever been spoken to diss,
and so i opened my mouth and tasted an hour of flower….
And also in continuing to keep abreast of ‘wood joinery’, I am offering these for your viewing and learning pleasure….Wood Joints, from The Australian National University .
Enjoy and thank you.
GODSPEED

I love taking walks in the woods but we don’t do it much any more…
but, now I get to take a walk or two every week via Frank’s blog—thank you Frank :)

Nice Frank….
Beautiful Peony.
Those joints are amazing, and as if that wasn’t enough. These are at the same site.

If you go up in the directory structure there is lots of very interesting stuff.

Hi Debbie;
—-I noticed you said how you love taking walks in the woods, “but we don’t do it much any-more” and so I’m wondering, ....why….is….that?
....any-ways, if I’m being nosy, you have my permission to just go and ignore me….
What happens on the day when your reading one of my walks, and I’m out walking those woods….and then in that moment of now as coming over a rise, we both meet up, will we know each other or will we just feel the passing of a brief breath of wind….? And then maybe some day I’ll get up your way to have a walk….
GODSPEED,
Frank

we used to do a lot more fishing … we don’t get out much any more.
We used to spend most our time at Rick’s house—in the city—so spend weekends seeking nature.
Now we live at my place with nature in my backyard and so we spend most of our time there…
So , I guess the answer is that we are too busy enjoying our backyard, watching the birds etc… to have to go elsewhere to seek it out.
