about me
I'm a photographer. Backpacker. Stargazer. A collector of obscure legends and lore. I can throw a pot or bowl, design and build an off-grid power system, convert semi-automatic firearms to fully automatic, and detect American foulbrood in a colony of bees. I know the difference between fillet and groove welds. When I was in college, I minored in more subjects than I have fingers on which to count them. I work for a nonprofit organization, buy organic vegetables from local farmers, reuse and recycle - and I will never vote for a Green Party candidate.

I'm an advocate of the slow food movement, but I have thus far managed to avoid joining a convivium. Putting an international organization behind a movement advocating local agriculture seems just a little too silly to me.

Oh yes: And if you do not understand something in my profile, I promise I won't throw a minor tantrum and tell you to look it up on Wikipedia.

Sioux Falls, South Dakota, where I'd spend the night not because it was getting late, but because I love... read more

My lovely mountain home is full of boxes. Boxes of books, boxes of kitchenware, boxes of backpacking gear and photography supplies and ancient chinese jades. A box with a cat - mine, not Schroedinger's. (I am in town at the moment and cannot see the box with the cat, but there was an empty box before, and I am sure the cat in question could not in good conscience keep it that way.)

There are still more empty boxes, too, and boxes with packing material. There are carefully wrapped bundles o... read more

2nd Street Brewing CO, Santa Fe
( local favorites » bars / clubs / cafes ) "very mixed" Their ESB is top tier - nice and hopped up! - and their stout is quite palatable, but most of the seasonal beers are merely slightly above average for a brewpub this size. Food is average quality (and average price for Santa Fe), with a few partic... read more
