Evanston: in disarray and out of focus



From Carlos comes a link to a video about an ingenious sail for cargo vessels.  This could resurrect the profession of sailing master for merchant ships and the irony of having oil tankers propelled by wind.

After about seven minutes it becomes Michelin self-promotion, but the first part is good.

I thank Carlos.

I came across the above photo at CNN.  The elephants are part of a herd of fifteen that ‘escaped’ from a nature reserve in South China last year and have now wandered more than three hundred miles.  Heavy rain made the going difficult this day and so they lay down to sleep.





As you may know each afternoon when I have Internet access I go the the All of Bach site

And then to their YouTube channel.

If nothing is new, I listen to some of my own recordings.


Yesterday I found this amusing three minute video.

Things must come apart before they can be put back together and this condo is coming apart.  Closet doors are open.  Boxes are scattered.  One trash sack holds shredded documents.  Another old clothes.  Almost every day I throw away a trash sack of long unneeded debris.  The moving is proceeding as planned, but I will be very glad when it is over.  And I miss glancing up and seeing Skull Creek.
