Garden Season

I've been starting my 2nd garden ever, and just like the first time, I've got a lot of questions for the pros. I decided to bring the pros and the newbs together and made a place where they can all get along and share information...I hope everybody considers a garden this time of year, and for those still local I'd be excited to see your garden at www.carolinagardens.org. Holler to Hunter for helping get this rollin'

Cheers!

Writing House

My friend Patrick (Squatty Pants, to some) is forming a summer-long writing community for this coming summer. His grandparents' idyllic Civil War era cabin in rural Burlington (not big city Burlington, mind you) will serve as house and home to 6-8 people who want to hone in on their writing skillz and possibly get something published with the encouragement of other like-minded folk. One of the 90 acres of property will be a garden, which will hopefully supply everyone with enough eats to be self sufficient and potentially make enough money selling cash crops to pay for the house's utilities (rent is free thanks to his grandparents!). Whether or not that works out, the Writing House bound to be a good time, so if any of you are interested and have a free-ish summer, let me know and I'll send you the official proposal once Squatty has finished it.

Spring cheer for all!

Annie in Mexico

I am currently in Mexio visitng Will seeing his boys, seeing the run of NPH, and trying to shade myself from the hot Mexican sun. Im really pleased I was able to buy a ticket to come see Memo.

Andrew is coming tomorrow too, and we are going to hang out some in Cuernavaca while Will is working.

Everything is bright, beautiful and dusty.

my first posty

I regret to say that this is my first post to the Tomorrow People...but something about this weather today filled my day with thoughts of my friends who have moved out of Chapel Hill (i.e. you guys). It also made me tihnk that regardless of what happened to me today, probably nothing could lessen my good mood. I even managed to hall a desk that probably weighs more than me across my apartment parking lot out of sheer exhilaration...and a love of dumpster diving.

Also, thanks Aaron - he always seems to make computers seem like tools to be used for my advantage, and not something I must suffer.

So: I am glad to finally be a part of tomorrow's people and look forward to reading through all the posts and hopefully updating myself on all your lives. It was a treat to see Katie and Will last week. Can't wait to hear about the rest of ya.

Much love, signing out,

Hunter

3. rich mullins - the jesus record
4. bob dylan - the essential bob dylan
