What makes me Me

about me
I am a mello person on a quest for what makes me alive as a person. I seek places that energizes my love for educational experiences and assisting worthy causes. I dig natural building, playing with permaculture, arting in poi, and experiencing bioregions.

Originally born and raised off of the land in the northwoods of Wisconsin with dual AmeriCanadian citizenships, I took off for Canada to pursue an education away from post-9/11 U$A and summered as a counselor for disabled campers. After three years of life in smoggy academia I performed in the institution's redtape circus and won sixteen months worth of spending my days and nights as a non-profit slave interning towards environmental engineering. After getting a taste of life away from the smoggy campus and innoculated with permaculture, I chose to take a break from academics and donned my traveling shoes to find a new school in Babylon. That brings me to here.

After this, who knows?

Walking through the woods helps to clear the mind. Before venturing out I dress in a few layers and throw on some blaze orange so that none of the neighbors shoot me. Today's snow is squeaky. I read the fresh snowfall and interpret the tracks and scats of rabbits, birds, squirrels and deer, and then follow myself back home before dark.

At night, going to the bars helps to meet the neighbors. The parking lot is full of trucks with dead bodies in the back. I enter the local saloon around din... read more

Today's sky is cloudy with a few geese migrating to warmer regions down south. The air is crisp with fresh fog emitting from our lips with every breath. Except for the evergreens, all of the trees in the northwoods are now bare with only the hardiest of leaves and apples still rejecting gravity. The grass, still green, is dusted with the first snowfall of the season from yesterday. The axe that I used last week to chop wood is now being used to cut and temporarily remove the grass from a ... read more

Cresting over Spirit Mountain brought me to where the St. Croix river forms the source of Lake Superior dividing Minnesota and Wisconsin. This stretch along I-35 offers visible signs of our western civilization, including a casino on the Chippewa reservation, yet they are insignificant to the awesome presence of forest and freshwater at this vista point. The trees have already peacocked with their fall foilage and only the hardiest of leaves still stood tall when I arrived two days ago. Af... read more

I wonder if Paul Addis saw me as he climbed up the Man to set him on fire early Tuesday morning? I was in the Green Man Pavilion down below when it happened.

I didn't see him. I had just met Kachina Katrina, a major force behind the Green Man theme, minutes before. I was standing by the Open Source Green Lab installation, right by the glowing red object in the above picture on the left edge, gazing upon the full moon eclipse with the Man behind my back. I had been scheduled to offer kn... read more
