Changes,changes, changes

The winds of change are moving me along. The sale of my previous house closed yesterday!!!! (Dance of Joy)  My new location will not have internet for two weeks- which among other things means, no posts until then. After being connected daily for years, I wonder if I will feel very isolated. What will I do with my time….oh wait, I believe unpack is the answer. During this change I have missed having the time to post and really missed the reading the  input from the minds and hearts of the folks I follow. In the meantime, I will be collecting pictures, thoughts and poems to share. See you in two weeks.

Sunday Post : Architecture

Jakeprinters Sunday Post : Architecture    This reminded me immediately of pictures I received from a friend just returning to the US from Turkey.   Not meaning to be fatalistic but the greatest building will one day also be ruins.

Wind Dancer

The Windstrument is a new wind energy system that’s “quiet and powerful, bird safe, and scalable.  It encourages me to see the birth of new ideas to old problems. We will always need power, the electric kind, this is a urban choice.

This is from a interesting innovative free newsletter I get from  http://www.fastcompany.com/

New house surprises

The butterfly bush covers the whole window

Part of the fun of a new home is to see what comes up and blooms as the seasons change. This butterfly bush just grew and grew until it was above the window..now it pushing at the roof overhang. It is very popular with the bees, butterflies and even a few hummingbirds. Nature keeps me amused.
