Thanksgiving 2010: Woodstove

One year ago, we bought our house. We finished the second building (office, guest house, etc) and are living in that while we re-do the main house. Today we installed our woodstove in the main house. First steps were building the hearth from slate we found in the yard, and constructing an air tight metal face also from found aluminum sheeting. The stove is the same model we had in our other house. We loved it so much, the moment we saw it on craigslist, we grabbed it.

for the video geeks- this was made on a Panasonic GH-1 with a 20mm pancake lens. i am still learning how to use it and i didn't have my external mic on, so you hear the auto focus a bunch. next time it won't happen, i swear.

I've been meaning to make this video for weeks. Check out our place and our gardens! If you can't see the QuickTime video, click here for the Flash version. We're gardening using the Grow Biointensive methods we learned in Willits, CA from John Jeavons and Carol Cox. All hand tilled baby. Everything is growing wonderfully.

i was laughing my ass off when verdi and jay picked up the wii. i've never actually seen anyone use this, oddly, and i thought it was so funny. also this is one of the only clips i recorded during our trip on my xacti. i just never picked it up. jay took lots of photos though. have a lot of stuff for ryanishungry on tapes though! i think that was enough for me. videoblogging week 2008 starts tomorrow. time to video things for real!

Lumiere 6: Apple Juice

Click To Play

it's been tough keeping up with navlopomo. being in rural virginia and trying to find wifi and keep my camera charged and then getting a head cold has not been good for posting video. i have been taping every day, so i'm going to back date some...i write my own rules here. drink plenty of apple juice when you get sick. i ordered this and the waitress said do you have a cold? yes, yes i do.

Sleeping

Click To Play

a while back, jay thought it would be ok to post a video of me sleeping...without first asking me. i was pretty mad. we made a pact to ask each other first if we could post more sensitive moments. jay told me to tape him snoring, because he didn't believe that he actually did it. well, he does! battle cat too!

Soundproofing

Click To Play

these apartments have no insulation at all. you pull up the floor and there is about a foot gap of space before the other person's ceiling begins. this means our neighbor can hear every fucking movement you make. and he really don't like it. so we are pulling the floor up to start soundproofing. always something to learn around here.
