rita and lily at the base of the twin firs



on the first day, we hiked up a very steep bit of mountainside to these enormous twin fir trees. our guides told us they were around 500-600 years old. the energy in this place is extraordinary. it's pristine old growth, a full functioning ancient ecosystem. one of the most spiritual places i've ever been to. the squamish nation has recently secured its preservation.

hey, say 'hi' to lily. she was kind enough to read my undergrad. thesis last year.

have you seen the dialogue going on at tim yu's blog? i think it may interest you. a couple of us (P.Lu, Chris Chen etc) are having a dialogue about 'race' and poetics. maybe you're interested?
