Yard photos: Before
Here are the handful of photos I took of my “Place in Nature” for my Ecofeminism independent study class: my front yard before I’ve tried to make it any healthier. I’ll post more photos as things get better! ;)

Amazon Ink I loved the basic premise of this story, which was that the Amazons of myth and legend still exist, hidden within our modern-day culture. Unfortunately, past that initial premise I found myself asking a ton of anthropologically based questions which were never answered — I think it was a case of me knowing…
I got to watch the gorgeous ballet Giselle this last Friday night! One of my housemates is an astonishing sweetie, and has taken me to both concerts and ballets for the past two years as birthday/C-mas presents. I’ll enthuse about the ballet, but first a quick plug, because I really, truly enjoy the performing arts…
We have moved! So much stuff happening; so many errands on my metaphorical plate! The photos are from before we moved in. Currently we’re still living in box-ageddon, though we’re making progress on changing that. It’s surprisingly satisfying to have a place you call home that’s yours — I’d not realized just how much.

I am very sad to report that the Women’s Spirituality program at the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology is being closed down. Apparently shortly after I graduated, the much-beloved president died, though this was not a surprise. A new president was selected, apparently without enough searching into his background… because — and here I condense and…
Oh! Thank you, Lou, for the correct name on those plants! Also, re the yard: I figure it has nice bits… I just have to draw them out and emphasize them a bit more, y’know? :)
Yes, it’s not a very nice place right now, is it? I’m sure some attention can make it nicer.
They’re not gardenias. They’re geraniums! I just remembered! I haven’t posted for days because I couldn’t remember that word.
