The land is all too shallow
It is painted on the sky
And trembles like the wind-shook rain
When the Raven King passed by

Chalk typography that looks significantly better big.
I got a giant (3ft by 4ft) chalkboard to put above my couch, and I’ve been practicing my typography on it. This is my second creation. The first really isn’t good enough to post, but if I continue to improve, maybe I’ll post more here in the future.
Lyrics from the song “I Wish I Was the Moon,” by Neko Case.
Goldfield Ghost Town. Literally right up the road from here (I’m in Phoenix, AZ, for reference).
I’m actually originally (and in my soul) from Wisconsin. Land of winter snows, good cheese, and an extra few pounds to get you through the winter. We moved down here over a year ago for the other half’s job. He’s a medical researcher. I couldn’t be more proud.
Of the things I love about Arizona, a crazy haunted landscape with strange looking plant life and lots of abandoned towns from the 19th century is my favorite.
Of the things I hate about Arizona, a crazy political landscape and basic disdain for human life is my least favorite.
Just in case you were curious.
