Processing
















Our second "Gleaning Tour" went very well. Our group was bolstered by several knowledgeable enthusiasts. Here we are picking/digging up chicory. I hope to roast it and grind it up for a coffee substitute. Ah yes.

Looking at Death


8 October 2009, originally uploaded by kt.ries.

We have mice in our house. The traps we set make a dull sound when they snap on a mouse body. This one died with his eyes wide open and looking outward. Their bodies are usually stiff when I fling them into the overgrowth across the street.
