Atlantic Seaboard

The easternmost coastal states and provinces of North America, the Atlantic Seaboard, is a geography united by its long and continuous human settlement, from a land sculpted by Native Americans to a massive megalopolis united by north/south Freeways. Like the West Coast of North America, the Atlantic Seaboard is a thin band that tells a longview picture of culture, biology and geography.

Green Skies and Pseudo-Events in Lower Manhattan

Boom goes the thunderclap!  The sky above Soho is green, and the strange color casts a glow on everybody rushing for cover.  Lightning strikes again, and another boom echoes up and down Broadway Ave. When the streets are all emptied out and I am alone under a green sky on Broadway Ave, I realize what it is about New York City, and then my cell phone rings, and it’s Jane, who’s been browsing in a store.

Sweet Southern Swamp

I left Macon, in Central Georgia; pastures and pines; hungry for sweet potato cakes and grits. Neon-colored billboards on the I-75 featured fresh pecans and adult erotica superstores. Somewhere between Macon and Valdosta, I stopped off to get a bite to eat. The restaurants were closed, so I dropped by the quik-mart.
