Stellar Video Music Link

Stellar link to a night I cannot forget.
As I searched for Levon Helm & Sean Costello,
this came up as my favorite version...
on this cold vermont day, thinking of all my friends in heaven,
I wanted Lisa to find Sean and Levon, because I know she can trust them...
We were in Levon's Living Room,
This video from The Living Room in NYC...

I was never there,
but Anthony was.

Thank him.

My Hip Friend

My hip friend Lisa taught me plenty about how to live to the fullest, to make the best of what God gave you, to help those less fortunate than yourself and

to always stay open to new music.

As much as I wanted to post some tragically hip for Lisa, I just could not do it.
Instead am putting up a photo of a cat we shared, Meridian, named after a tragically hip song,
today I learned was a euology. Fair journey, sweet Lisa. Thanks for sending me Meridian
just as I needed her comfort,
you always had a knack for that.

One Thing...Monkton Chronicles

One Thing...

 

If there is one thing that I can say,

We spoke up, I spoke up, did what I can,

a small speck of a person,

fighting against a senseless pipeline.

blew my mind when looking at our town website,

 

monktonvt.com

 

and saw VT gaz posted an unsigned mou there.

what gives?

Am too tired officially to fight this.

 

Let me post what neighbor,

Jennifer wrote and hope

if you are so inclined,

no matter where you are in the world,

you can comment on this fracking insanity.

We say no to the pipeline in Monkton, Vermont,

Will you join us?

 

reprinted letter from Jennifer, dutiful servant to the rigorous fight against fracking pipelines.

 

The Agency of Natural Resources is holding a public hearing on the wetlands permit application for the Addison Natural Gas Project on Wed. Dec. 18, 2013 at 6 pm at Champlain Valley Union High School in Hinesburg, room 160. This is a hearing to receive public input on the impact of the pipeline on wetlands (and also natural areas, and rare, threatened or endangered species of plants or animals). Of particular interest to ANR is any information that local residents, especially landowners along the route, can provide on this topic that may have been missed by either Vermont Gas’s natural resource assessments, or by ANR’s review. In the first petition filing last December, VGS managed to miss the entire salamander crossing project, so who knows what else they might be overlooking?

ANR has already signed a Memorandum of Understanding with VGS. If you are wondering if this sequence is out of order, that is, having the hearing after signing the MOU, well, you’re not the only one. The MOU can be seen here, and can also be the subject for public comments:

The hearing notification is here:

The entire permit application is here (there is a lot of info):

Thanks Jennifer...

From the archives...too cold to go out

Looks like it will be a white Christmas...

Brrrr

Brrrr

Cold air,

Descending on us like a frozen steam roller,

Chilling to the bone,

Shaking chills

Brrrr

Sorry to even

Mention 

Brrrr

Even making that sound,

You probably understand,

It's a shaking sound,

Nonsensical un word,

Brrrrrrrr.

Psalm Challenge 134

1 Behold, bless ye the LORD, all ye servants of the LORD, which by night stand in the house of the LORD. 2 Lift up your hands in the sanctuary, and bless the LORD. 3 The LORD that made heaven and earth bless thee out of Zion.

Tommy Emmanuel at Fur Peace Ranch...
Just so perfectly beautiful,
one note after another, falling magically into place.

 

Of course when I added a tag, was reminded of our Tommy,
always by my side...
He is so smart...
