Here we go. They’re no larger, but they are heavier than when I brought them here. Think kind thoughts about my back. Tags: daily photo, Sylt, travel

Blow, wind, blow…
My final day here has been punctuated by the most aggressive winds and downpours that I’ve seen so far. It’s a real reminder that we are on the sea, dammit. It gives me a bit of insight into what the off season must be like here. Every time I think about heading down to Westerland… Continue Reading
Yesterday’s drawing…
…always looks slightly strange to me. Alien. The things I’ve made contain memory, sure, but it’s not released in the way that might seem logical. I can remember certain things about drawing, while I’m drawing, and not otherwise. A memory that resides in the hand, not the eye. So scanning what I’ve done is always… Continue Reading
Winding down…
Slept until 10:30 this morning. So it’s no surprise that so much of the day is gone by the time I’m getting around to posting.

You can’t make this stuff up…
Since I’d walked into town today, I almost took the bus home, but I was feeling pretty good and decided to make the trek on foot. About four fifths of the way back I started to notice how crazy the sky was getting, with huge clouds piled up across the horizon. No rain, but the… Continue Reading

The view from the side of the road…
This morning I dreamt that I was waiting to be sworn in to my new job as a congressman and while trying to remember the oath, I was mildly embarrassed to realize that I wasn’t quite acquainted with a particular issue that I should have been speaking out on. The feeling in the dream and… Continue Reading
