Note wooden pole to left of builder wrapped with wire mesh. Between mesh is a 2 inch air gap to protect risk of fire. Cob has been built around the mesh frame.

Watercolor painting that I did as a present for my wife (way back when I was a good husband....she can hardly remember those times now).

View the notes. What a mess, this is such an embarrassment. Really, since I've acquired this time off work, I "should" be cleaning, but Flickr is too addictive. And, again another fuzzy photo, oh they're making me mad! P.S. Don't tell anyone that I was standing on a night table, and I probably should be since my appendix was removed two weeks ago.
Music is a big thing in our house. It has always been for me, and I am so glad to see the girls growing up with a keen interest.
Having watched Erin enjoy her first year of piano lessons last year, Miranda is keen to learn as well. She had a year of Introductory music lessons last year learning rhythm, notation, a little basic keyboard. This year she is counting down the days till she starts real piano lessons. I can only hope she continues so keenly.
Today she has been back and forwards to the piano, making up her own "tricky music".
Today's ds106 Daily Create is
"Show us your favourite song in a picture-- Put on a favourite song. Listen to it as loud as you need to. Make a photo that sings the song."
Instruments in tune are a nice thing, but having yourself in tune? From Who's Next:
I'm singing this note 'cause it fits in well
With the chords I'm playing
I can't pretend there's any meaning here
Or in the things I'm saying
But I'm in tune
Right in tune
I'm in tune
And I'm gonna tune
Right in on you
Right in on you
Right in on you
I get a little tired of having to say
"Do you come here often?"
But when I look in your eyes and see the harmonies
And the heartaches soften
I'm getting in tune
Right in tune
I'm in tune
And I'm gonna tune
Right in on you (right in on you)
Right in on you (right in on you)
Right in on you
note: Looking at this model, I wonder if it is in fact a SANO product, as Excelsior used various manufacturers and this cabinet and knob design doesn't closely resemble any other SANO amps.

This pictures gives one a good idea of the geography of the Navajo Nation. It will be barren and flat for some miles, but then an amazing rock feature will pop up. Note the road is nearly empty, but one should not use this as an excuse to speed. The Nation has its own police force, and they partol looking for needed income from traffic tickets.

Sometimes, I get a student who has decided not to speak. It's understandable. If you are suddenly plunged into another culture with a language you don't understand, one of the few rebellions open to you is to elect not to speak. it gives you one small bit of power, where otherwise, you are powerless.
C doesn't speak, apart from one-word answers that take a while before she gets the nerve to whisper them. I'm working on her confidence in speaking, but in the meantime, we have the most marvelous written conversations. We talk about food, TV, movies, and people, all with her careful illustrations and our giggles and nods back and forth. The notes we pass are some of my most enjoyable student interactions.
Probably a lot of people think I should be pushing her to speak more. I'm more concerned with earning her trust, so that when she does decide that she is comfortable with conversing verbally, she knows she can trust me to listen to her.
... il mio equilibrio è in cielo
come i sogni dei poeti,
mai potrei viver come voi
che avete sempre la certezza della terra sotto i piedi
e vola sulla corda la mia mente
a rincorrere i pensieri
ad inseguire l’utopia
di catturare almeno un “oggi”
prima che diventi “ieri”
e provare a far danzare il tempo.
Il funambolo - Ratti della Sabina
Ayudando al camarero, ya que éramos muchos y no nos aclarábamos con las tapas. / Helping the waiter, because we were a lot and we didn´t clarify with the "tapas".
Front porch detail. Note delicate scroll sawn brackets on original turned posts. The blue arrow points to a board which may cover over a turned spindle course, hidden at a time when everything Victorian was out of fashion. A sensitive restoration would turn this house back into a Victorian showplace.
