Daily observations at or near Two Dot Spot, written by hand on the backs of postcards that record with ink and coffee a few minutes of the earth's orbit around the sun. The cards are physically mailed from Two Dot, Montana to those who have requested them...local to local. Ruth Marie Tomlinson

Tesha is awake early and in the yard writing. She is wrapped in her scarf looking beautiful. Now I know her well enough to understand her commitment to looking lovely at all times: digging holes for compost in silver heeled sandals, eating dinner at the school house in a lace halter and pearls. She is also knowledgeable about the natural world, and curious about her relationship to it, drawn to what is lovely and mysterious and profane at once. It is this shared fascination that draws me to her.
