I worked solid today without even the tiniest break.. and it felt good .. . I worked last night fro 10-1AM.. then  slept till 7.. ..Around 7:30 Seth and his family dropped by on his wy back to college.. 

Then a quick run with the dos.. then on the phone onutil about 6:30 without a break. I make a real point not to discuss the nature of my work here .. but i’m involved with soem exciting stuff these days.. the 9 hours of phone calls. with . india, england, sweden china, new york went by in a blur.. I had hoped to go in for a face to face meditation meeting at lunch.. but I couldn’t even get a break to go downstairs

I like working at home.. I usually hunker down in the bell tower.. It’s a great office. it’s about 50 feet in the air.. far from distractions.. far from plumbing too..  / Here’s where I usually work.. pretty simple.. a chair, my cell phone my laptop  and something to drink

Here’s the bell we ring for important occasions.. I hung it the day before our wedding in 1986.

Here’s the view to the north.. we overlook the confluence of the huntington and winnoski rivers.

Here’s the view to the east.. our neighbors house and the ridge beyond the winooski

And the veiw to the west.. over our yard.. and to the left, Robins mountain

… and to the south.. over our roof line and beyond to the back field

Here’s the grate in the floor I pace over..

.. and the 45 foot drop underneath it

I love my little workplace..

The only other excitement in my day was voting in the primary.. I skidded in just befor ethe poll s closed..  I love voting in our little town.. they ask you your name thoguht they already know it.. they tell you how to mark the ballot.. though you’ve done it this way for years.. I got in the voting booth not knowing who I’d even vote for.. Democracy is  fun and mysterious

OK.. not much more to report.. again the house is full of kids.. one more almost goodbye party..   I’lll miss it so much when they all go..

Speaking of go.. I gotta go.. It’s 9:15is and Diane and I are going over to wish Kathy and Lou a happy 25th anniversary..

more later.. nite all nite Sam
