After cutting down live trees, you will often get a lot of shoots coming up from the stump that are supple, fast growing and very lively.
So I have added a new hobby to my collection, "Braiding trees" and shaping them to my liking. My better-half was very pleased to find the natural arbor that now covers the upper pond and the seat next to same.
These sculptures are nice when you see them first hand but are hard to share good images of them since they look like a thick growth of trees. But looking out from the tunnel that is the main entrance to the our garden in the woods...
... the sky provides enough contrast to be able to see the archway.
Given enough time, some subtle directing of branches along with some strategic pruning here and there, I can envision a fairy garden fit for Lothlorian.

An article from Physics Today speaks of congress and EMP related topics.
Protecting the electrical grid would take the most devastating form of TEOTWAWKI (the end of the world as we know it) off the table and save me at $10K I plant to invest in steam engines, casting, and boilers.... if they act before I order the stuff.
I created the above diagram to illustrate how the various forms of disasters can or will affect the spare time that people have In this article on Mainstream Preppers I try to compare the various forms of TEOTWAWKI and how they are related and differ from my minds eye. I feel that "spare time" (time available to person beyond time required to live) is related to the level of comfort and luxury we have in our daily lives.
