DOWN GRADE INTO THE VALLEY
Once, my old man and I went on a hike through Hetch Hetchy and the Yosemite Valley. It was my first time there and easy to see why so many consider the Valley, regardless of overwhelming amount of tourist, a true wonder of the world – one of the most beautiful collections of wild terrain. Who says it better than John Muir:
“But no temple made with hands can compare with Yosemite. Every rock in its walls seems to glow with life. Some lean back in majestic repose; others, absolutely sheer or nearly so for thousands of feet, advance beyond their companions in thoughtful attitudes, giving welcome to storms and calms alike, seemingly aware, yet heedless, of everything going on about them. Awful in stern, immovable majesty, how softly these rocks are adorned, and how fine and reassuring the company they keep: their feet among beautiful groves and meadows, their brows in the sky, a thousand flowers leaning confidingly against their feet, bathed in floods of water, floods of light, while the snow and waterfalls, the winds and avalanches and clouds shine and sing and wreathe about them as the years go by, and myriads of small winged creatures birds, bees, butterflies—give glad animation and help to make all the air into music“.
MADE HERE – UPSTATE
Next chapter in the Made Here video series is on the girls from Upstate. Kalen and Astrid have a unique take on Shibori and dip dyeing to create beautiful one of a kind psychedelic scarfs in their Brooklyn apartment. Last Spring we went to hang out with them and their friends, listen to Stevie Nicks and dye some fabric. Here is the result. Thanks to Hello Mtn for writing the song just for it. Anyone else interested in possibly providing some music for future videos please email me.
