Creek Running North

For someone who’s been rather obsessed about issues of place for gosh I dunno decades, it’s odd I never stumbled upon the notion of a place-based weblog until I found Numenius and Pica’s blog, Feathers of Hope. I imagine the notion of “blogs of place” is not original to these two Davis denizens, but they’ve implemented it inspiringly. The idea for Creek Running North was lifted entirely from their site, though I did sit that idea out in the Pinole Creek climate for several weeks to let it acclimate.
