Mud
welcomed back the well-traveled sculptures
and the dogs as the willows greened up
and our Lago Ephemerale returned.
Within a very few days the road to the chairs became navigable
and thanks to Dundas Tuesday was Door Day,
which brightened up L.’s studio considerably by Wednesday.
[more doors]
The Repo come Mayo will need some attention, however, but
here
despite all the green locally
it was a week of browns to whites and back to browns over on the Fox Range,
symmetrical for sure. Meanwhile, as the winds dried everything out,
some people still insisted on remaining as wet as possible.
A last walk segued
into briefly breakfasting,
out the gate before nine,
five gallons of gas in Gerlach
to make it down the road
to Nixon’s outskirts…afterwards
filled up in Wadsworth, paused east of Truckee,
lunched at Heather Glen, sat through Friday’s increasingly stupid* traffic
and was in Benicia to unload art, retrieve the ’45 [not shown] and unload the rest,
in advance of imminent collapse, by 4:00. Then rain…
*Stupid of me to make the drive on a Friday.
Welcome back…naturally I love seeing the post slapped with our IAO runes!
Good to see the pieces back in their spots!
Hoping the runes will be up long enough to bewilder the Burners even if Bryan’s former CO up in Washington deciphered them immediately [well to be fair he’s an aficionado and scholar of All Things Nordic].I’ll be putting up more around there come May. And documenting…
Yes great to see “Cloak of the Motion” and “Gramma seed” back home…three more to go though of those one is quite easy; just a couple of trips with the wheelbarrow. “Insinuation” and “Grey Matter” will want both brawn and equipment however…stay tuned!
award winning, always
After a blizzard of cold and unloading your visit ended with the beginning of a dry spring (white to green). Glad it all worked out and hope the collapsing at home was recoverable. Great photos as usual.
A very interesting chronicle with some exquisite images (the dark doorway to studio with tree shadow for one). I also really loved the series of Fox Range watercolors.
