Community of the Land: November 2008
http://communityoftheland.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Community of the Land. Writing nature home to our daily lives. Thursday, November 27, 2008. The holiday we now celebrate by stuffing ourselves with turkey and a host of other dishes, often followed by a glut of watching football, did not begin with either turkey or sports. In fact, it didn't begin with people who we now call Pilgrims from a colony in what is now Massachusetts. I am thankful that my memoir, Walking Nature Home: A Life's Journey. An artist whose friendship and inspiration I cherish. Fo...

Skip to main content. An intrinsic affection for and connection to the Earth and its community of lives. Without this connection we are lonely, lacking, no longer whole. ( My late husband, sculptor Richard Cabe. And I coined the word to describe what motivates our work and our lives.). Terraphilia, our entry in the 33 Ideas Art Show at Denver International Airport. We like to think we are above belonging to the messy stew of wild relationships that birthed. RICHARD CABE TERRAPHILIA RESIDENCY PROGRAM.

Community of the Land. Writing nature home to our daily lives. Thursday, September 25, 2008. A Community of booksellers, writers, and readers. Last week while promoting Colorado Scenic Byways: Taking the Other Road. I spent an afternoon at the Mountains and Plains Booksellers Association's. Trade show in Colorado Springs. I didn't just sit in Portfolio Publications. Except at Mountains and Plains. Booksellers are a community in the best sense of the word: they share common attitudes ("Eat. Sleep&...Annua...

Community of the Land: Snow – at last
http://communityoftheland.blogspot.com/2008/12/snow-at-last.html
Community of the Land. Writing nature home to our daily lives. Tuesday, December 9, 2008. Snow – at last. So I've worried as weeks have passed in between the scanty offerings of storms, and the weather has been warmer, windier, and dryer than normal. (Whatever "normal" means in the brave new world of global climate change, the unintentional experiment on a grand scale that we can only watch and hope won't be as bad as the models predict.).

Community of the Land: December 2008
http://communityoftheland.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Community of the Land. Writing nature home to our daily lives. Thursday, December 25, 2008. I'll admit it right up front: I love Christmas. Not for the piles of presents—I like receiving gifts as much as anyone else, but honestly, what I love about this holiday of lights is not the accumulation of more stuff. No, what I love about this winter holiday is its green and joyous roots, which come through no matter how over-commercialized, over-consumptive, and simply stressful Christmas has become. In those d...

Skip to main content. Sunday, August 9th, 2015. I've been cranky around the edges for the past several weeks, less patient than usual, easily irritated and sometimes outright bitchy. I've embarrassed myself with my moods, and wondered more than once where the good-natured me went and who is this out-of-sorts woman currently inhabiting my skin. By two-thirty though, I was edgy and restless. I could feel a mood coming on. Just in case Donald Trump. Would make- a "functional sculpture," as he called the hou...
