I began this life in a northern wilderness, with no electricity or phone or television for my first twelve years, and although I’ve certainly enjoyed many busy, sociable careers, I am very happy at this stage of my life to be writing nearly full-time, on the wild West Coast. I am surrounded by books and wild ocean beauty and I have excellent company. I count my blessings daily. The Village of Many Hats. Oolichan: 2012), my Canadian Odyssey novel for adults,.

Blog from the Kootenays : On 1949 and the timing of wish fulfillment
http://freegreenliving.blogspot.com/2014/12/on-1949-and-timing-of-wish-fulfillment.html
Blog from the Kootenays. The life and times of an old semi-hippie. Tuesday, 30 December 2014. On 1949 and the timing of wish fulfillment. Some memories from the year 1949. Yes, I do remember Harry Truman being president. The memory is that of a newscaster intoning the name as a man in a hat steps off a plane. It is indelibly linked to tinny music, the smell of french fries, and Popeye the sailor man. Back then movie meant one thing: Cineac. (Picture from wikipedia.). Now for the wish fulfillment. In the ...

Blog from the Kootenays : We stood up and were counted.

Blog from the Kootenays. The life and times of an old semi-hippie. Saturday, 14 March 2015. We stood up and were counted. I heard about it the day before. I had missed opportunities to join other Nakuspers to a rally in any of the larger centers, all at least 2 hours from here. It wasn't till late at night that I thought: Why not make something happen right here in the village? Some of its members see "politics" or "protest" as disrespectful of the sacred place. I had grabbed a blooming geranium from the...

Blog from the Kootenays. The life and times of an old semi-hippie. Friday, 1 May 2015. For May first: a memory of singing The International. The time: between three and four in the morning of March 26, 1969. The place: a small apartment behind the upper row of 3 windows in the house you see here, Westerstraat 191, Amsterdam. At the time it was used for housing married student couples. We had been assigned a flat in September 1965. It was incredible good luck and I was very happy there. Originally from Am...

Blog from the Kootenays. The life and times of an old semi-hippie. Wednesday, 13 May 2015. Jaap and Hester and Bets and Herman and Heini and Toni, the story of a friendship beyond wars. I wanted to do this blog around May 4th, as my contribution to the endless goings on around the memory of WWII. We are in the gardens, so this is late. Be patient, the relevant part is coming. First, we are setting the scene. For a nature loving city child even an urban back yard was joy. In 1961 I was preparing for the g...

Blog from the Kootenays. The life and times of an old semi-hippie. Sunday, 4 May 2014. My life and times in the wonderful wacky world of network marketing, in installments. Everything you have heard about Network Marketing AKA MLM is true. The bad,. The good, they are all true. Chapter one. A bottle of green pills. A picture of my life at this time:. Daughter had launched and I missed her terribly. Teenage son was still at home. My body was doing the puberty in reverse thing known as peri-menopause.

Blog from the Kootenays : Mange Tak!
http://freegreenliving.blogspot.com/2014/04/mange-tak.html
Blog from the Kootenays. The life and times of an old semi-hippie. Saturday, 26 April 2014. My first words in a foreign language were not any of the ones learned at school, but Danish. About school: St. Arting in grade 6. In those years all Dutch children except the ones in trade school routinely learned English, French and German. I was in a class for future academic nobs who started with French, everyone else did English first. In retrospect one wonders at the snobbery. My mother explained a lifetime.

Blog from the Kootenays : The stars and I
http://freegreenliving.blogspot.com/2015/03/the-stars-and-i.html
Blog from the Kootenays. The life and times of an old semi-hippie. Monday, 9 March 2015. The stars and I. A study of cycles, expressed in a language of symbols. Horoscope: a snapshot of the solar system as it appears at the place and time of birth. I cannot claim to have studied astrology for 40 years. It would be accurate to say that I have observed life with that symbolic language in my head for that much time. Feet have been well and truly squeezed. P. S why I do such and such! Professionals will set ...

Blog from the Kootenays. The life and times of an old semi-hippie. Friday, 28 November 2014. On being a dabbler. At 71 I have the privilege of no longer having to figure out what I want to be when I grow up. That is a good thing because I never did. The truth, dear reader, is that I am by nature a dabbler. I like doing a bit of many things and as a result became a master at none. I keep seeing people who are making a success of enterprises I might have been able to pull off. I quite enjoy giving reflexol...
