CURRENT MISSION

learning blacksmithing, metal casting and chainsaw carving

ABOUT ME

i have been casting my energy from coast to coast primarily in north america the last few years. working with the winds whims amongst the woods and in the urban grime, mostly working with inner city youth guiding, building, gardening, gathering
camping canoeing. I seem to travel quite often by any means possible hitch hiking driving ect. and
i love working on projects with people, building, fixing, tinkering, and always have a couple half finished ones kicking around.(which people are more than welcome to help me with) like my sauna, almost finished.
i make a mean herbal tea, for any occasion \and can manage a delightful squash and ginger soup if your interested.

hope to meet some of you some day, along these roads of ours.

PHILOSOPHY

a gourd of wine a sheaf of poems
a bare subsistance half a loaf not more
us two alone in the free desert
what sultan could we envy on his throne?
