woodstock handmade hippy freaks

I found the book

"Woodstock Handmade Houses"

today

while out pickin' in 

Hendersonville.

I know it has been blogged about

ALOT,

maybe too much,

but when I looked at the other

posts,

I wasn't seeing what 

I 

was seeing.

I wasn't seeing the Apartamesso

hippy chic, dusty dirty

spider plant

vibe 

that every kid under 40 is grooving on,

what I was seeing was the geometry,

the organic geometry

that these wise bearded Woodbutchers

of Woodstock

had brought to these homes.

From the geodesic yurts, 

to entire trees used

as

structural beams,

I was totally taken my the moderness

of these handmade houses,

a moderness that came not from fashion

or choice,

but from necessity.

Pretty great....
