Improvisation: May 2009
http://jstoneblog.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Tales and Curiosities of One Year. Thursday, May 28, 2009. Kiwis Don't Make Straight Roads. So yeah, that's pretty much it - we leave early tomorrow morning from Te Anau to the beginning of the Milford Track, and return in three days! Pray for good weather . Wednesday, May 13, 2009. We see a rainbow everyday. Also, Mack just was able to put a ton of his edited photos up on shutterfly. He has a computer, unlike myself, hence the larger number of edited/nice photos). Go see them here. Here, we're at the fi...

Improvisation: March 2009

Tales and Curiosities of One Year. Monday, March 30, 2009. My only day in Santiago wasn´t particularly eventful. We walked around the city when it was really, really hot out to the Mercado Central and Plaza de Armas, as well as a few really pretty churches. We also walked through this huge market looking at food for hours. It was a crazy place. Also split a kilo of delicious strawberries in a park square. Tuesday, March 24, 2009. It Ours Always Best. We left for Torres early the next morning on a two hou...

Improvisation: We see a rainbow everyday
http://jstoneblog.blogspot.com/2009/05/we-see-rainbow-everyday.html
Tales and Curiosities of One Year. Wednesday, May 13, 2009. We see a rainbow everyday. Oh, paradise. Not really, but since it rains here so often, we are actually averaging over one rainbow per day. Kinda crazy when you think about it, but the weather here is so strange, we can't even rely on the weather forecast from the day beforehand. Chances are it's either (a) rainy, (b) windy, or (c) a combination of (a) and (b). Also, Mack just was able to put a ton of his edited photos up on shutterfly. Of Conser...

Improvisation: November 2008
http://jstoneblog.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Tales and Curiosities of One Year. Tuesday, November 18, 2008. Desperately needing to catch up . I think I'm about a month behind at this point. So time to, well, catch up. At least a few weekends, hopefully, before I decide to pass out for the night. We left off . where, jeez, I can't even remember. Oh, Fleet Week, right. Okay. So . wow that five weekends ago. Sorry for the stream of consciousness. Further into the hike, Matt on a very dead tree:. And a nicer view into the valley:. From the park, I head...

Improvisation: June 2009
http://jstoneblog.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Tales and Curiosities of One Year. Saturday, June 6, 2009. So Mack and I have spent the past few days in Dunedin and the Catlins with Dave Rogowski '08, who was kind enough to host us for a few days! It's been a quick half a week, but we've seen and done quite a bit. Anyways, not much time left on the internet, so we leave here, go north to see Mount Cook, then jump over through Christchurch to Blenheim for a bit of touring, and then back to Christchurch to fly out on Wednesday!

Improvisation: April 2009
http://jstoneblog.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Tales and Curiosities of One Year. Saturday, April 25, 2009. Another day on the job (and photos as promised). I saw my first hedgehog ever this morning! Unfortunately, it was dead - apparently sonic doesn't do so well with the really powerful traps. We also pulled out several dead rats, but no more ferrets today. Our job consisted of finishing the rest of the larger public track that goes about 6k through the center of the reserve to the top of Mount Bruce and then down to farmland. I believe the majorit...

A year on the move. Saturday, June 6, 2009. Only 3 days left in NZ! Jon and I have just done a whirlwind tour of the South Island, including 2.5 of the famous Great Walks and will soon be cracking the 4000km mark on our rental car (pretty good considering we've only actually driven it 11 of the last 20 days). We spent the last few days having a mini Williams Reunion with Dave Rogawski in Dunedin - it was a blast. More new photos from the South Island soon. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

A year on the move. Sunday, January 25, 2009. We just had a quickie powerpoint introduction to the project. Very Cool. We head up to go start pulling fences this afternoon and have a BBQ with the other volunteers up there. We´ll be out for roughly a week then before we come back here and have a few free days. Schedules are not necessarily weekly, so I won´t necessarily have internet access every Saturday for instance. Pictures will arrive at some point, sorry. Looks alot like the picture in my first ...

Dislocated: July 2009

A year on the move. Monday, July 27, 2009. A couple of worthwhile reads. An extremely well put together article on health care reform. Explains that we already have government bureaucrats determining the value of a life and other 'rationing' of health care with our current policies. Nobel Laureate Paul Krugman's take on how the Blue Dog Democrats. Could screw up health care, their party as a whole, and even the Obama presidency. And then if you're still bored:.
