    I already have all the fame I can handle thanks, going abroad soon so will almost certainly fade into the echoes. going to get me a country place in the mountains by a wood that is all mine. Get a bit of my own wood pollard pasture going and live the good life for as long as possible. being with the trees, walking the walk is all I ever knew how to do

    an emergency Oak over the road in the dead of night, howling wind and rain, lightning struck a forest grown oak and literally split one half of the trunk and canopy away. the remaining 50% of the stem with crown was a very unnerving and most peculiar sensation to climb. but i had big kahunas back then, had no darn right to be up in it in all honesty
