Musings on Lewis Carroll's Alice In Wonderland

"But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."
"How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."

Experimenting with a mini camcorder fastened to my sunglasses and my H2 recording surround sound, I walk from the parking lot up to the Trillium Viewpoint in Tynehead Park, Surrey, BC, Canada. May 17, 2009.

HENRY DAVID THOREAU:
"If a man walks in the woods for love of them half of each day, he is in danger of being regarded as a loafer. But if he spends his days as a speculator, shearing off those woods and making the earth bald before her time, he is deemed an industrious and enterprising citizen."

ALAN WATTS: "The hostile attitude of conquering nature ignores the basic interdependence of all things and events---that the world beyond the skin is actually an extension of our own bodies---and will end in destroying the very environment from which we emerge and upon which our whole life depends."
