dailybell: July 1 – 3, 2022 ... on the road again

dailybell

2008 was the inaugural year in an ongoing, aspirational project dedicated to the observation of the sun every time it crosses the horizon and to sharing the awareness of that moment with others while ringing bells. It is based on the conviction that something as inarguable as the movement of the earth can be used as a point of unity and awareness among large groups of people who might otherwise find it impossible to agree.

July 1 – 3, 2022 ... on the road again

Visiting dear old friends as I wind my way back to Brooklyn after saying goodbye to Krys and Zo at Krys’ mom’s home in Chicopee, MA. It’s been a blessing-- So good to be moving around and wonderful to spend time with people I haven't seen in such a long time.

Ancient bells with Old Friends
July 1, 2022. Sunset 8:36 PM. Poestenkill, NY.
Sunset with Ching and Gunnar- ringing some very special bells. It’s quite an honor to even touch something that old, let alone hear its ancient voice.

Bells and Bugs in Annea's Backyard
July 2, 2022. Sunset 8:32 PM. Crompond, NY.

Annea and I ring down the sun in the presence of the emerging fireflies (or lightning bugs as we called them in New Jersey as children). A lucky shot of one of our audience members as it blinked on.
Thank you for the lovely bell, Annea!

Puppy love

Celebrating with Connie and Bob’s neighbors and the 7-week-old puppies who are enthusiastic about everything.
