RAW B00TS

We spent the months of July and August of 2018 living out of our electric blue Volkswagen Eurovan.  We traveled from our home in Seattle, Washington through Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, South Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, West Virginia, Virginia, North & South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, & Texas.

On our journey we encountered: natural cauldrons tinged yellow, red, and blue by microscopic communities; shrines to hubris and salvation; dwelling places of the living and the dead; the ingredients of a small town priest’s magnum opus: agate, azurite, barite, calcite, copper, drusy quartz, fluorite, geodes, gold, jasper, lapiz, malachite, petrified wood, & quartz; an exact replica of a thousand year old house of worship; the personal and historical monuments of a father’s hometown; rhythmic patterns of nature unfurling herself across a continent; and varying tabernacles of faith, art, music, truth, transience, wisdom, and history.
