Current path…

As of late January, 2011, I founded a new site, www.exopermaculture.com. And ever since then I’ve been feverishly blogging away there.

Only after I started did I realize that “Exopermaculture: Bridging Above and Below” combines and integrates two parts of myself. I’ve been keeping track of these two parts in two blogs on this Tendre Press site: “M’Entendre” (my meaning, “the above”) and “Urban Farmstead,” (which includes the activities of the Green Acres Neighborhood Garden, “the below”).

Since conditions are still fairly wintry, I’m still at the computer. Pretty soon, the garden will call . . .

And, after two years, it’s probably time to break out the Garden blog and put it on its own site. . .

As usual, life continues to morph, and morph again. So much to do, so little time . . .

Especially now, that today, March 9, we begin the final phase of Carl Calleman’s version of the Mayan Calendar, the Universal Underworld, where we really do all begin to learn how to breathe together, sing together, BE together — from now until October 28, 2011.
