This is a Zebrawood bowl with a segmented layer of Zebrawood and Ash. Janet turned this several years ago in a wood turning class we took in Oakland, Ca. Since then she's turned many beautiful pens out of exotic wood. I'll probably photograph and post them soon.
An old tree carcass is home to thousands of things as it decays on the forest floor. Ice Age National Scenic Trail, Blackhawk Segment.
Digital capture; composite of ten frames. Fine art printing assignment, using Advanced Black & White driver for Ultrachrome on cool tone 200gsm rag.
The segments were trimmed with a knife and sandpapered with fine grit.
Put together loosely. The contrasting disk is ok but the All-Black is out a big bit.
Bio geek shot: two of the three major segmented phyla (Arthropoda and Annelida) crossing paths during some early spring gardening -- with the third (Chordata) represented by the human behind the lens. :-) The segmented body plan may have arisen independently in each of the three, starting from different unsegmented ancestors.
A nice quiet 27,000 mile month.

The overhead piece is made from folded 3x5 note cards folded into an origami piece called the Star Box. The boxes were then linked together at the points to create this large form. Created by architectural students of Professor Susan Melsop at the Ohio State University. This is approximately one fifth of the whole piece.
Segments of Byzantine, a traditional weave made with modern square rings, link large "square" circles. Traditional and modern, classy and industrial, evocative of hardware. The Byzantine segments are about 1/4-inch in diameter (7mm), and the large rings are just under 1/2-inch in diameter (12mm). The rings are sterling silver & the bracelet closes with a large sterling silver lozenge clasp.
Please see my profile for more information.

The weather in Yantai was great, it never rained and was never too hot. Yantai is a great break from the larger cities.

Day 4 (Segment 28)
random campsite to Bridge site
Segment 28 is the final segment of the Colorado Trail for those who start in Denver, as I did several years ago. It is 21.5 miles to Durango, all ‘downhill’. Not really, but Segment 27 boasts the last time above 12,000 feet. Afternoon thunderstorms wouldn’t be as threatening. The storms I anticipated for today hadn’t materialized but the day wasn’t over.
Getting to the Pass wasn’t too difficult and once there had some nice views of where I had been while taking a short break. Hiking on the other side of the Pass was steep and treacherous in some places. Following a narrow gulch it seemed to take forever to get down.
After 16ish miles for the day, I finally found a flat spot at the Junction Creek bridge. It was loose dirt and although trees were nearby the site did not have direct tree cover. Normally, I wouldn’t be too concerned but I was still thinking about the potential rain. Of course, I did start to hear thunder.
When we were in Boston on vacation, we did a Southie tour on our own! Lots of Whitey Bulger sites...for sure! (and Ben Affleck movie locales as well!) D and I have been reading books on Whitey so we've been really into it!
This is the bar at Murphy's Law. It was in the movie "Gone Baby Gone" It's a LOT nicer in person and whilst the reviews on Yelp had me nervous going in as a tourist, we were the only ones there and we were talking Thanksgiving recipes with the nice bartender.
Murphy's Law was also on a segment of Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations on the Travel Channel.

Day 5 (Segment 28)
Bridge site to Junction Creek Trailhead
Cruisin’ right along, I made it to Gudy’s Rest. A fantastic overlook with a bench honoring Gudy Gaskill, who made the Colorado Trail a reality. I stopped for a break and took in some of the final views. A very nice stop but Gudy’s bench was in the sun so I opted to relax on a rock bench hiding in the shade. Still very nice.
As hikers near the end of their journey, getting off of the trail is always on their mind and then how to get to an airport or bus station to travel home. Sometimes family and/or friends might meet them on the trail and provide transportation. Another option is to catch a hitch, which was my plan to get back to my car. Of course, I was hiking into a day hiking area, so any hiker encounters would be a possibility, since they would likely be parked at the trailhead.
Gudy’s Rest is about 4 miles from the trailhead, so I didn’t have too much further to go. And wouldn’t you know it, a couple of dayhikers arrived. Of course, now was time for my Yogi skills while chatting. (Yogi’ing is in honor of Yogi Bear who was always after a pic-a-nic basket. So, to yogi is to receive some food or other assistance from others who are interested in your trail tales.) They were very friendly and I was able to secure a ride from the trailhead! I just had to get there in time.
Now the goal was to make it to the trailhead by 2:00, when the friendly dayhikers agreed to pick me up. They were camped in a nearby Campground and not actually parked at the trailhead. It was after noon, so that would mean 4 miles in 2 hours. 2 miles an hour is definitely doable especially with the gentle terrain. Getting a ride and getting into town is motivation to move quickly. I did and made it to the trailhead about 1:35. I waited until they arrived and then enjoyed the short ride to the train station to my car. Thanks for the ride!
So that was it. Congrats to me for finishing the Colorado Trail! I started in 2015 and finished in 2021.

Day 5 near headwaters Elk Creek to Cataract Lake
After Stony Pass the frustration began. A trail sign indicated that Cataract Lake was 12 miles away. The databook said it was 10, which I continued to reference as I hiked. I didn't catch the difference. It seemed like I was making good time but not good progress. There were numerous little bumps to contend with but the hiking was relatively easy.
I met a couple of hikers hiking the other way and asked them the question I never ask. "How much further away is 'insert destination'?" I never ask the question because the answer is always skewed, mostly because my hiking style will be different from theirs. Knowing I still had a ways to go, I asked this time and was not pleased with the answer. I wondered how could I be moving so slowly? It appeared I was doing less than 2 miles per hour which is agonizingly slow.
Nevertheless, I persevered and finally made it to the lake, which wasn't exactly Cataract Lake but a nearby smaller lake. If I had stopped short I knew I would be less likely to finish in the morning, which would have left a gap in Segment 23.
It was after 6:30 when I finally setup camp next to this pristine lake, which provided an excellent reflection. A long, sunny day, all above 12,000 feet, with awesome views. Per the databook it was over 18 miles but adding in the 2 mystery miles from the sign equals over 20. I don't know which was accurate, the sign or databook, but I'll stick with the sign since it felt more accurate.
