Lights out

Winds of change rollicked through the area yesterday, and the omniscient god of house activity – electricity – took a vacation in another galaxy for several hours. The out-of-doors didn’t necessarily beckon us invitingly with all the gusting, but exciting projects were waiting.

Digging out the black locust logs from a bramble pile about a month ago, we also uncovered some spalted maple. Yesterday we sawed it down into work-able sizes and starting digging into the pieces with the intent to create bowls. Several hours of chiseling later, some pieces proved to hold good wood through and through, others did not.

We’ll see how this progresses, because as the afternoon light waned and a large moon waxed, Timothy and friends beckoned us to the cinemas of Wilmington for a Quantum of Solace showing.

Car, foot, boat, plane and fire chases completed, I sure hope Mr. Bond also managed to leave behind his bitterness, and will launch into his next adventures ready to love again.
