http://aqspees.blogspot.com/2013/12/cold-winter-vacation.html
These are my opinions not those of peace corps. Friday, December 27, 2013. Some people take winter vacation to somewhere warm and sunny to soak their weary bones in tropical sun. but when my canadian friends offered buddy passes to the visit them in the arctic i couldnt resist. So i assume you have heard of canada right. well canada added a new territory in 1999 called nunavut comprised almost entirely of native Inuit land north of hudson bay to greenland. I decided on the hotel arctic. The local paper w...

AQSpees: June 2011
http://aqspees.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
These are my opinions not those of peace corps. Saturday, June 25, 2011. I got a week off last month and decided to put in the new french doors, windows, insulation, and board and batten at the house in mtn city, tennessee. Dredging the calcasieu river. I worked on a dredge boat in southwest louisiana as a endangered turtle observer it was incredibly boring living offshore for three weeks at a time but it was a good introduction into americas oil economy and extraction.

These are my opinions not those of peace corps. Friday, March 09, 2012. I took a graffiti tour of bogota the day before leaving. still impressed. This is from a guy named dj lu, a professor at a university. So an irish guy came to bogota and heard the story of dj lu and made a stencil in honor of the professor/artist seated at a desk with a diploma and paint can. Monday, March 05, 2012. Return to the start. Not a typical street scene. I returned to the fernando botero museum, i really like his art. Medel...

Wednesday, December 07, 2011. Totally off the grid groovy man. Before the install on the south facing barn.

AQSpees: November 2011
http://aqspees.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
These are my opinions not those of peace corps. Friday, November 18, 2011. I think when i opened the door the mother chased leo and one of the cubs bluff charged me. when she heard my flipping out she turned back then the other cub charged me on the front porch. This little bear hates benches. This bear hates styrofoam insulation. This little bear hates football-sized yankee candles (autumn toasted-cinnamon swirly surprise). This little bear loves sleeping in compost bins (this one is juuuust right).

AQSpees: February 2012
http://aqspees.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
These are my opinions not those of peace corps. Tuesday, February 28, 2012. The colombia i imagined. Before coming to colombia i was expecting tropical heat, beaches, sunbathing, skimpy bathsuits and pina coladas. instead when i arrived in bogota the weather was in the 50s and rainy and as i got to the coast it was desert like with cacti and sparse vegetation. Breakfast of deep fried snook (robalo) beans and rice and the ever present, bland salad/garnish and a bowl of sancocho (beef and potato soup).
