Lorraisa Pics

 I need to put the lorraisasa pictures in  a folder in on one computer, and have the software, the photo app update, or pull from the folder, so the folder can have different pictures, and there can be different folders for different computers so long as the same updater, the google photo app online for the store, is pulling from them all.

So I need to check and see that the pics can get pulled, uploaded, from the folder with no problem.

finally got that bolt removed from the wheel

 11/23/23

Happy Thanksgiving!  I finally got that bolt removed from the wheel.  If feels like some time ago, but the truth is, it’s been some time since I’ve written, I wonder if my fingers have something to do with it.  I’ve been having numb finger for a while now.  I’m glad I’m writing to tell the truth.  It’s partially because of the cold fingers, and partially because of busyness.

Interesting that I don’t have a journal for this computer.  It’s true that the keyboard is small.

It’s also true that I’m in the camper, and damn near about to go to sleep every time I’m in here.  It’s good.  I haven’t really written because things have been moving along. 

In any case I’ve been in the camper, getting acquainted, and ready for winter.  I just got he gas water heater working, and he stove.  I went to my sister’s and got a propane tank, which had propane.  I gave a guitar to my nephew, which was emotional.  I called the guitar ‘gypsy girl’. Anyway, I’ve set the axiom up, and I’ve begun running piano scales.  Going to get another guitar, but there are deals on quality guitars that I don’t have to be impatient about because I’m running scales on the piano. 

-I have to remember to fix the end link on my jeep.  I’ve got the part.  Basically, I’ve got to figure.out how to get it off the vehicle. I’ll park the jeep with the front facing the street, back it into the driveway.  Chock the wheels. It should be more level then as well.

the gravitas (?date)

 With something like ‘the laurentide calf’ I want to display the gravitas the challenge is to evoke a sentiment which stirs the origins.
while puttin gorth the power which ravages within.  within the events of one’s life, environment, mental state. in an understated way.

the calfs were because of land structure and terrain, broke off and continued on into depressions, from which mountain springs and kettle ponds of today emerge.

the positions created by the subglacial crystals were created by gravity.

i want to display the gravitas.  I want to try, within the means at hand.

the rock tripe, or lichen represent age (? date)

 to me, the rock tripe, or lichen represent age.


I see blooms of age, and I think about the history that has passed since then, and that it was there. a piece of that.

laurentide notes

with the striations, one idea, is to capture ‘the wave’ of the flow.  I can frame it to show the wave too. the amplitude. probably not the frequency, although that could be inferred.

I wold like the ‘statement’ or the  element, or the theme of striation. So when I’m putting them together,

Laurentide calf

https://newenglandhistoricalsociety.com/the-kettle-holes-of-new-england/
Kettle holes came about with the retreat of the Laurentide ice sheet, which covered much of Canada and the northern United States. The icebergs it left behind got covered with sediment until they melted.
Kettle holes dimple the landscape south of the Great Lakes, Adirondacks and New England mountains. They then end around the 37th parallel along the southern borders of Missouri, Kentucky and Virginia. Thorson calls them a “blue galaxy” within 19 “kettle states.”


Striations, or Striae

Glacial striations or striae are scratches or gouges cut into bedrock by glacial abrasion.
Large amounts of coarse gravel and boulders carried along underneath the glacier provide the abrasive power to cut trough-like glacial grooves. Finer sediments also in the base of the moving glacier further scour and polish the bedrock surface, forming a glacial pavement. Ice itself is not a hard enough material to change the shape of rock but because the ice has rock embedded in the basal surface it can effectively abrade the bedrock.

So as I see it, this glacier moved along this way, toward that valley, where it became trapped, and the parent glacier’s meltwater built sediment around it, where it became submerged, and further melted into the pond behind the garage, which has a bowl beneath where the water from this glacier feeds.  it s kettle pond, a place of legend.
thoreau’s walden pond is a kettle pond, 100 ft deep.
