Lost Bike
The small and quiet side street on which I live is just of Allen Street, which has a lot of bars that are open until 4am. Every so often I’ll find remnants of the night before that may have spilled down our street…here’s an example. It’s a Trek bike (a nice one, too); it’s obviouslyContinue reading “Lost Bike”

Savage Victory Garden
It’s early July and my vegetable garden has already become pretty wild…almost feral (despite our somewhat gloomy and overcast summer thus far). Every year I tell myself that I will weed better and not plant so close (they look so tiny when I put them in the ground)…and every year it becomes something past myContinue reading “Savage Victory Garden”

Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#42)
A big cardboard box full of hardwood scraps. Someone must have put in a new hardwood floor (oak, I think) and put the scraps in a box at the curb…perfect kindling for later this year. And yes, I realize that it is in the middle of summer, but this was just too good to passContinue reading “Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#42)”

Living Simply and Simply Living
The act of living simply in an urban environment is trying at times to say the least. There are so many distractions. Like faith, it takes work. I find that reading what others have to say inspires me. As the author of this book points out, living simply does not necessarily mean that you haveContinue reading “Living Simply and Simply Living”

The Story of Stuff
I came across this video at the Story of Stuff website. It’s a 20 minute video of–as the title suggests–the story of (our) stuff…how it gets to us from the very beginning…and how it affects things on a global scale…a little scary, and a little eye opening. If you’ve got a spare 20 minutes it’sContinue reading “The Story of Stuff”
