Chipper Thoughts

Today Lynda flagged down the Hydro crew as they were cutting down trees, and arranged to have them drop off the wood chips in our driveway for use as mulch on our pathways and garden beds. As I stood watching them feed whole trees as big as 8 or 10 inches in diameter effortlessly into the chipper, I was of course reminded of this scene from the movie Fargo. Now we have a pile of woodchips in our driveway the size of a Buick, and I’m hoping I don’t find the remains of anything (or anybody) else in there as we spread it around the place. I do enjoy free stuff though.

By Chance, is that 54×3?

As part of the By Chance series presented by Owen Sound visual artist Alan Glicksman, avant-garde art-noise aficionados 54×3 recently entertained a crowd of several in Durham, Ontario.

Here are some excerpts.

And here is photographic proof:
