  2. Two views from Mad River Beach County Park. Separated by a thin strip of land, the Mad River parallels the Pacific Ocean near McKinleyville, California. You can walk this section of the coast and excellent viewpoints are found from Mad River Beach County Park to Clam Beach County Park.

  5. Living rurally has many great points. Being on a shared private road is not always one of them. Because, people. Fortunately our shared water system neighbor is an ace. Wish he was part of our shared road, but alas. #humboldt

  6. Im Jahr 1799 treten Alexander von #Humboldt und sein Kollege Aimé #Bonpland eine Reise in die Tropen an. Festgehalten wurden ihre Eindrücke und Erfahrungen in Humboldts Reisetagebüchern, die in der Stabi aufbewahrt werden. Einen Auszug findet ihr auf unserem Blog 👉 blog.sbb.berlin/humboldt-aerge

  7. A few no Summer photos from our morning adventure.

  9. We had a swarm in our yard today!
    Called the Humboldt Beekeepers swarm list and foubd someone who came over lickety split and boxed them up. So far they're staying put. We have to close up their little door at dusk and she'll pick them up in the morning. And keep the dogs away.

  10. People get the wrong idea when I relate my experience of living off-grid, miles away from other humans, deep in the wilderness of the mountains in Humboldt, California.

    Somehow, it just doesn't click that no, there's no roads Trails, and things resembling road like passages cut by people with properties using their own tractors and excavators, sure. You dare not go anywhere farther than you wish to hike unless you bring a chainsaw with you; failure to do so means you might not be driving back after a couple of trees decide to fell themselves across the path.

    Food, the mornings were fun and interesting. I would start by filling the firebox in my Stanley cooker with Doug fir, oak, and madrone. It takes a good 20 minutes or so before the kettle begins to billow steam, a few minutes after that it's boiling - during that time you've been grinding the coffee beans by hand with the big circular crank on the wall-mounted grinder. Then you pour the boiling water into the coffee press and turn your attention to breakfast sizzling away in the video below.

    You'll probably need to add more wood to the firebox, it's not a very efficient stove the furnace in the main room, but it does burn hot enough to turn all that iron into a giant griddle - if you're really adventurous you can try to bake a cake in the oven. It's an art to keep the oven consistently at the desired temperature, and... that's part of the fun too.

    So what else were you really going to do in the hour and a half it took to make breakfast? Next? We tend to the garden, then later we travel about bucking up logs and felling trees for the coming winter.

  11. #Programmtipp:

    Für morgen ist eine 'Der Tag'-Ausgabe mit Sarah Bosetti live aus dem Humboldt-Forum in Berlin angekündigt.

    Das wird vermutlich kurzweilig.

    Guten Empfang wünscht
    Sascha

  12. back up on the north coast this weekend. stopped for a quick jog in the trees on the way into Eureka. #FootpathFriday #humboldt #trailrunning

  13. Wie immer #OpenAccess ist die neue Nummer unserer Zeitschrift HiN - Alexander von #Humboldt im Netz (HiN XXVII, 51) online verfügbar unter www.hin-online.de.

    Mit neun Beiträgen und einem Umfang von 158 Seiten, ist eine sehr schöne, umfangreiche Frühjahrsausgabe gelungen.

    Darunter auch Aufklärung über „Die besten falschesten [Humboldt-]Zitate aller Zeiten“ doi.org/10.18443/397 😄

  14. This week's delivery day is Thursday.
    Order on our site and pick up this Thursday, 4-6 pm pickup at Urban Farm Oasis in Berkeley.

    We've got tons of great plants, comparable to the ones in the background image here (though no Velvet Lushers this year). If there's something on our main list, but not on our "available for delivery" list, it's probably because it's still too small or maybe all of those are getting past their prime. We're okay selling either in person, but we only like to deliver plants in their prime.

    We're not sure how long we'll keep doing deliveries, since things are slowing down, so we're playing it by ear.

    Note that we're having an on-site nursery sale this weekend, but sale prices don't apply to delivered plants.

    Support Urban Farm Oasis while you're here. They're a sweet local business.
