That's beautiful. Here's a pic i took on island of kefalonia in Greece a couple of years ago when i was taking a break from working on bronze age tombs. I feel like I'm back standing there after seeing your drawing.

Love Scotland. Ran a great course on human anatomy and origins of forensic anthropology/science. Did a screen cap of weather app on last day. Can't argue with the consistency. Would like to go back soon.

Since I seem to be the only one to listen to my own "wise" councel (🤣) I've established myself as my own garden hermit in a nice rustic garden in the middle of nowhere. Highly recommend it.

I bought myself a bright red whammy pedal for my living room. Also making my coroner of the world a bit more colourful (visually & musically writing & recording a protest punk album). Also peak middle age. How are you coping with a crazy world and middle age? Pass it on...

In this pic I'm contimplating the meaning of life in the city of the dead at the Etruscan necropolis near Cerveteri near Rome in 2019. They built their tombs to look like their houses. Built cemeteries to look like their cities. Real city of the dead.

Snow fortification are in place. I'm ready for the invasion by the USA. Thanks to the snow plows and some hard shoveling I have a snow fort around my house. A lot more snow fell since I took this picture yesterday.
