Loose Goose cabin outhouse on the Alligator River, North Carolina.

From Katherine Lea:

These cabins are unique because they were built by our great-grandfather, originally on land. Erosion pushed the land back and they stand on stilts in the middle of the water, powered by propane. It is now illegal to build on water; and if 50% of the cabin is destroyed you can not re-build.

“Wisdom is very important. The more wisdom we have, the less ignorance we have; and the less ignorance we have, the less suffering we experience. If we have wisdom there is no basis for experiencing problems.”

“When you start to think of the arts as not this thing that is going to get you somewhere, in terms of becoming an artist or becoming famous, but rather a way of making being in the world not just bearable but fascinating — then it start to get interesting.”

- Lynda Barry adds to history’s finest definitions of art. (via explore-blog)

“If you see that some aspect of your society is bad, and you want to improve it, there is only one way to do so: you have to improve people. And in order to improve people, you begin with only one thing: you can become better yourself.”

The Dune Shacks of Peaked Bars Historic District.

From The Provincetown Design Group:

Nestled into the ever-shifting shapes of the Province Lands dunes, they are primitive in structure, but surrounded by a rare sort of richness – the mesmerizing environment of the ever-changing dunes, great undulations of sand that are constantly swept by the ocean’s winds into new shapes and that have long been a place of withdrawal for artists, eccentrics, writers and Cape residents.

Since the mid 1990s, area non-profits have offered solitude in the dunes to writers, artists, scientists, historians, musicians, and dancers through summer and fall shack residency programs.
