Jenny, I'm sort of a loner. But I do wish someone was with me when I'm hiking or taking pictures. It would be muich more fun for someone to be out there with me than for me to just post about it on message forums.

I have taught some voice classes before, but I don't know enough about anything except singing and acting to teach anything else and I don't want to teach singing or acting! I am trying to work on giving tree tours at the NY Botanical Garden, but I don't think I know enough about them to lead a tour yet. Kind of a frustrating time in my life, to put it mildly... I wish one of you guys lived here so I could have someone to teach me and actually just to hang out with walking around parks and woods. It's hard. (everyone feeling sorry for me? good!)

If you are a teacher that is so cool. You can touch so many lives that way. A good teacher can do so much. I can remember good ones I had in school, more than 32 years ago.

It's pretty damn depressing. So much is destroyed. I know this is common knowledge, but it just shocks me every time I think about our species' ability to destroy nature. > > Jenny > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: John Knuerr <[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > Sent: Wed, Jan 6, 2010 6:50 pm > Subject: [ENTS] Maya Lin Video on unchopping a tree > > Movingvideo I ran across:http://www.vimeo.com/8128504 > > John- Hide quoted text - > > - Show quoted text -
