11. Most of everything that I furnished my small apt

I got out of the trash from places that I have worked at being cleaning stairs or cleaning snow from apts....



The Universe does provide at least to those
that pay attention

Possessions are extremely transitory and end up possessing us vs.we possessing them..... two suitcases...... I think that was a startand with this wasteful first world that we live in.... I found a bounty in the trash
over these years.

I'm not living in a poverty of soul nor possessions..... I did take my computer
over here in a suitcase....LOL

I digitalized my photos, work recommendations, degrees, old letters etc.
on the computer.... have a backup, but even they can fail.......


Your dishes, appliances, antiques mean
nothing........just like the bed you sleep on

they are made of dreams.

Your photos and documents are what count
in order for others to see where you have come from, your degrees, recommendations
and family life in those times, the furiture
is in the photos....

Here is one, from my life
with COUNTRY JOE MCDONALD
at the house that I built in Port Townsend
Washington..... before I went to Hawaii
to worked on Frank Herbert's place on Maui..... Made no money per say but as a carpenter
I was blessed or I think I still
have something to offer to humanity.
DU ....... can do that too..


Can't find that photo, it was on DU
with Country Joe........
