What an odd world it is with the Birlenberg wisant❤️i. You made me laugh with your wiseacher wisant comment - channeling Paul so well there. I have also been thinking about the times when people lived in caves - stone at their back meant safety I guess. What a beautiful piece so thought provoking. Looking out at Lake Superior and wishing you and yours well❤️
This is wonderful. I love knowing that the town has a bison/wisent in its crest. It is a tragedy that we are not more thoughtful about protecting our wild lands and creatures. It's funny about People's Park. Forty years ago I thought it was a good idea to keep it a park. The last time I walked through it -- maybe five years ago -- it felt unsafe, drug-ridden, syringe-littered and ugly. It looks much prettier in your aerial view than it did walking through it in person. Might be a function of how old I am (and how hard it was for me to find a place to live when I went to UC Berkeley) but it seems time to transform the space into dorms and housing for the unhoused with a People's Park mini museum on the site. Thank you for this thoughtful post, Jen.
Beautifully written and inspirational...from Bison to Berleburg to parking lots....yes, let's push to make more nature better taken care of everywhere! Thanks for sharing.
This is beautiful! I love the idea of rewilding ourselves. And thanks for the links that allow a deep dive into this theme!
