Hammock Time, A Weaving Collective

November 21st, 2010 · 1 Comment

Yesterday I was walking in Palmer Square and noticed all these hammocks hanging from the trees. I looked closer and saw they were marked with info tags saying they were the work of Hammock Time, a weaving collective. I guess they just weaved and hung these hammocks for fun? Kind of the like knitted graffiti you see around town?

As I did my laps I noticed one little girl trying to get into the chair hammock, but otherwise no one was really interacting with them. Maybe if the collective had done this in warmer months people would be more inclined to hang out in a hammock in the park? I saw a homeless guy hanging out on a park bench. I bet that hammock hanging nearby him would have been more comfortable… Hammocks for the Homeless!

Final Cape Cod Photos

July 18th, 2008 · No Comments

A few more random photos I have from our Cape Cod vacation.

This was our rental house in South Yarmouth. It had two bedrooms with queen-sized beds, one bedroom with bunk beds and a loft with two twin beds. There was a bathroom with a jacuzzi tub, living room and full kitchen. The screened-in porch had a dining room table with seating for six and some wicker furniture for a separate seating area. Outside there was also a table and chairs for eating. The backyard was fenced in and had a hammock, fire pit, clothes line, grill, and outdoor shower. Oh, and there was central air, a flat-screen tv, and lots of games. Basically, there was nothing that we could think of that we wished we’d had.

This spurred a lot of conversation about how to pronounce h-a-m-m-o-c-k.

Walking home from the beach each day we’d call dibs on who got to use the outside shower. It was pretty awesome. I can honestly say that this was the only time I felt the need to wear sunglasses while showering.

This piece of “art” was in my bedroom but I had to move it because I constantly had the Phil Collins song in my head.

We went to this liquor store almost every day. The employees were really nice there.

One general beach observation: Sunscreen lotion is a thing of the past. Everyone is using the sprays these days.
