update from the woods

Getting into week 3 here at the Hudson River Landscape Fellowship. The days have been packed! We're up with the sun and in the field all day, many times until after sunset. Then it's a rush to cook dinner and crash out, so I haven't had much time to update the blog. Those of you reading Sadie Valeri's blog ... she brought her own internet connection device and is updating every night, (that's not fair Sadie!) I don't have any new photos of work tonight but here are some photos from the last few weeks, we're having an awesome time together. I'll try to get a bunch of good photos of the work before we're done here. Thanks to Dorian Iten & Sadie Valeri for sharing their photos for this post!

  2. I once saw some people entering a building with art supplies in their hands and hurried up and pulled over in my car, grabbed some supplies that I had and followed them in. After the class the teacher asked who I was and I explained how I ended up there and he laughed himself to tears.
    I wonder if that would work here?
    I could just show up.
