Fieldnotes
| Feb. 2000 It had been raining heavily earlier in the day and slipped on the mud and I dropped my camera into a deep pool in the rocks. Darn that Ver. To be honest I love the rain. Bill Clinton said at Wimbledon that it was what makes our islands so green. And how often do we moan about it. Bill was probably reconnecting with his ancestral roots when he talked of the pishing rain - he doesn't live here now of course, and he doesn't need encouragment in root connection. JC's theory of sacred water collection on these horizontal sheets, is so simple, and makes sense in these damp islands. Of course, the neolithic folk of Britain knew well that the rain was a lifegiver and surely the culture celebrated this big style. What better way. That day reminded me of the sanctity of the holy water fonts of my RC upbringing. But that's another story. |
