Net Making Class at Agua Caliente Museum...


This weekend at Palm Springs was a lil warm Saturday,

also a great day for net making . Scheduled for 10:30am,

My lovely wife and myself awoke early with lil sleep to what

we hoped would be a exciting day. I wanted the opportunity

to pick the brain of Paul Campbell (Author of Survival Skills

Of Native California) for the skill of Native California Net making.

It took a few hours to get the hang of it...




I'd say that it's not easy,

but once you get the hang of it.. you get into an automatic groove...

I just can't explain. We enjoyed ourselves ... immensely!

Eagles, Great Horned Owls, Red-Tailed Hawks... Are being killed by WINDMILLS...



A location in northern California continues be the subject of debate over turbines killing birds. In the Altamont Pass... windmills are killing Eagles, Owls , Red-Tailed Hawks... and other birds of prey... Officials are saying even when the windmills are turned off and not moving... they still are harming the birds fatally. Very terrible thing to be happening to our relations. Locations such as in areas of southern California... near Palm Springs where the windmills are in the hundreds... Are having much of the same problems. In todays day and age for the race for a GREENER FUTURE... OUR BIRDS WILL SUFFER IN HUMAN industrial progression. As a native in the 21 centry, I feel majorly guilty for harming the earth and all her relations. Not only do I take responsiblity for my part, I often wish of being born in a time without progress. Just in a simple time when us humans where just part of the landscape. ALC
