.. tells many tales. I am looking forward to our first camp fire this year ’cause I am going to take a lot of pictures with timelapse function I discovered on my camera some weeks ago.

Talking about fire, I read yesterday that the US copyright on Before Adam written by Jack London has expired, and that the story is available on Project Gutenberg. Before Adam is a story about proto-human in the pleistocene age, and a kind of Jack London’s idea of primitive man. I haven’t read it yet, but I will as soon as I have had read Slavenka Drakulic’s book “Frida’s Bed“. You can find it here: Before Adam.

PS:If you have time after your dinner tonight, read this lovely short story written by Jack London too: “How to build a fire”.

“The soft summer wind stirs the redwoods, and Wild-Water ripples sweet cadences over its mossy stones. There are butterflies in the sunshine, and from everywhere arises the drowsy hum of bees. It is so quiet and peaceful, and I sit here, and ponder, and am restless. It is the quiet that makes me restless. It seems unreal.” - Jack London
