This tree witnessed whiteness.
Art and I did some last-minute looking for things that can’t be found, but must be found, preliminary to our departure for points south, dark and early, tomorrow morning.
We’ll see how things go.

This tree is a guest tree from my past. And really it’s not so much a tree, as me – although there are undeniable trees present. Standing along pedestrian street in Ilsan, near my home, in November, 2011. My friend Peter (who’s visited me here in Alaska) took this picture.

This tree experienced colder weather over on lot 73.
Arthur lost his computer (macBook) earlier today. It was quite distressing for both of us. We spent several hours looking for it – I even looked for it outside. It just seemed there were only so many places it could have ended up. Finally, close to bedtime, I found it – it was tucked between the sheets at the foot of the bed where he’s been sleeping. How it got there… I’ll not speculate too much.

This tree was there when I installed the snow tires on the blueberry (Chevy Tahoe)… in the snow.
The snow served as a kind of extrinsic motivation.

This tree is at the water’s edge.
I didn’t walk the dog today because I hurt my ankle stepping in a hole at the library yesterday in town. But I think it’s not badly damaged – I just wanted to not push it too much.

– un seudo-haiku.
This tree is in front of a mountain that’s covered in clouds across the water which you can’t actually see.
I’m still not feeling so great – but I’m better than yesterday. Arthur stayed in bed for 35 hours straight. But he was up and about again today. So I think the worst of the vaccination hangover is over.

This tree was near a very high tide.
Today Arthur and I both got both flu and covid booster (so-called “bivalent, AKA 3rd booster) vaccinations. I’m expecting to have a rather feverish weekend, as my immune system tries to make sense of the invasion.

This tree is a guest tree from my past. It was a tree (among other trees) I saw in the forest on the north side Gobong mountain, in my home in Korea, in October, 2014. I saw semi-abandoned chairs there, which are ubiquitous in rural South Korea.

This tree was nearby when I did some more work on my little storage-shed-slash-greenhouse thingy (“studio 3.0”).
Art was feeling a bit better today, and so I felt comfortable walking with the dog and then later working outside a bit. He’s completely past nausea as far as I can tell, but he’s struggling (and staggering) with the dizziness/vertigo, still.
