Poem about hunting song birds that are not game birds (after meeting hunters while looking for arrowheads)

 I wouldn't think there was much nutritional value
In the bone marrow of a sparrow
But you can hunt what you want
and eat what you kill
You could even use a bow and arrow

A riddle

What is round and smooth, soft and warm?

Cuttlefish Halloween Pumpkin

Nicest one in a while:

A better Osprey

 

Compared with the previous Osprey, this one looks more real, more aerodynamic. I am pleased with this. The design kept coming to mind while doing the previous one and I had three false starts before I got a beak that would not break and a piece of wood with only minimal internal cracks.

You can see the Himotoshi:

Pretty sloppy. I had a hard time seeing what I was working on.

My role in having an "open" policy, in New England Ceremonial Stone Landscape

From the beginning of having discussions about secrecy for sites versus publicity, I argued that publicity and education was the best way to protect the sites. Then I forced the issue by publishing the majority of the sites I found. Since I found so many, this became a sort of "fait accompli".

One time at a NEARA conference a woman said to me: "We'll just have to agree to disagree". I thought to myself: "No I do not agree to disagree. I will just go on publishing sites and you can keep your one or two 'special' places secret."
