Well, they're supposed to be cool, anyway...this is a picture oriented site, in case you hadn't noticed. This part of the site is getting out of hand, so I've added some new directories. New posts are at added to the top; to see archived posts on a given topic, you can either go directly to the local (mostly nature/flora), local architecture, or travel (this is a catch-all which includes links to "Vietnam") or scroll down to the bottom of the page, which includes the same thing in typical thumbnail/link/description format.
Enjoy.
The dsl is still sorta flaky, which is why these posts are also sorta flaky. But I did finally managed to get the camera to more or less focus on some 2–3mm stringer, so I made a post about the colors I use to make one of my favorite striped canes for florals plus a couple of others thrown in fo...
Gee, two bead posts in a row...maybe I'll do kumi or something tomorrow. Once again I was feeling rotten (this time from a cold) with requisite headache, so I decided to make more easy little beads, and practice my pointy end petals while I was at it. Then, because the beads were so lame, I added...

People who ride in temperatures below 32d Farenheit are allowed to call themselves icebikers—even if they only do it once or twice a year. (And, yes, there really are people who do this regularly. Some of them live in places like Alaska, too.) 11feb2005
Well, I see what I did with part of my summer: I made web pages. I spent all morning putzing about, and for that I've turned half an unfinished post plus a new one into two complete ones. This one advertises Sord&Sworcery, the sf&f apa to which I belong, and shows off some of my less than stellar...
