SHASTA INTERMISSION

Tim, backlit for maximum halo effect.

I apologize for the delay in publishing last week's article. 

I have returned to Portland from a week-long retreat at Mt. Shasta, where I assisted Tim Miller. 

During my time in California, I went on an intentional Internet and cell-phone fast. 

So there you go — one week, no Internet, no phone, and nature surrounding me on all sides.

It was, despite all that nature, quite nice.

Normal publication will resume shortly. I aim to publish new posts every Friday (or more).
