look outside my window.
what do you see?
A lawn
with a garden in the corner.
the chicken's house is there, too.
a rose bush
yields fragrant, beautiful
yellow cream flowers.
Birds peck at Emily's leavings;
a Bluejay struts the rows of lettuce.
The crows that live
at the top of the great cedar
claim their sky raucously.
The cat chases off the squirrels
across the yard
the cherry tree
is a 24/7 all you can eat feeding frenzy;
the blueberries and rasberries are untouched.
You sit
in a blue chair
under a blue sky
exploring.
Who is this again?
My name is Max. I was born and raised in Seattle, WA. I am a student at Western Washington University studying Environmental Science Journalism. I am specifically interested in photography. I am really into the outdoors and exploring the places that I find myself in, which sometimes makes for good stories!
I'm reading...
"Three Among the Wolves" by Helen Thayer. This is a story of a couple and their half wolf, half husky dog who trek into the wild alaskan tundra. There they slowly work themselves into the confidence of the local wolf pack, and spend the entire summer living a stones throw from the pack's den. Amazing story.

Beautiful Max!!!! Do you have any others you can post? you know the one we have left is Piper though right?(= me and mom keep marveling that she's still alive after all those issues with the vent. Love you and good luck figuring out where you're going next! Dad is in Portland and I just got back from Sacramento so mom had a lonely few days at home here. Miss you. Meg
Hey Max,
We got your postcard. I assume you are off on a tramp because of no blog update the last few days. (I'm beginning to depend on them to know you are okay, so blog soon please).
The Sonics are winning sometimes and losing sometimes. It's early in the season.
Did you hear that the Democrats took the House and may take the Senate? Also, Rumsfeld resigned today. Maybe there is a god!
I love you Max.
Love,
Mom
