More The Bill 04

franklin02

While Leslie was in Beaufort, we were Nosing around our Ashville property and scouting out the future house location. Noser Mill is a symbol of this house, then.

It’s 2130. It’s out of bounds currently. Will Blue Mountain make a counteroffer?

One problem I woke up thinking about tonight is the more constricted areas I’ll be hiking in. Just enough people frequenting the paths I plan to walk to make it more difficult to set up a successful, alternate reality in the style of a Billfork, a Whitehead Crossing, a Lion’s Roar. Woodrow Wilson College is private property and I could be banned, possibly, for stomping around the woods there. Who knows. In Blue Mtn. I’ve never been caught doing that in many a year, and I don’t think it will happen. It’s something I have to be conscious about. Might be a problem, and might not be.

Today I plan to go to Ashville again and check out things. Hike the WW trails again. Check out nuances. Take more pictures, of course. Whatever, it can’t fully *replace* Frank and Herman Parks. It’s large, but still a much smaller area compared to those 2 parks.

If UMaps has been interpenetrated by Pierre’s synchs, then Carrcass+1, the largest, will be easy to spot. And it is — Pennsylvania. Penn. is also coded into the Herman Park’s Herman’s legthy epitaph found on the back of his gravestone, which is a plaque, actually, of the full obiturary from a local paper. The plaque represents Pennsylvania. Further along this same mountain, which is TILE Mountain (or Yards Mtn.) there is the brown and white bottles found and transported to Lion’s Roar in 2012 that point to this location (LINK), later amplified by the presence of Klinger and MASH symbols (Urban, Red Cross, Klingerstown, etc.). Brown’s, White’s and Bower’s Island point to Chuck Brown or Chuck Laser of brown coloring (uniform). He is a Zapper. He lives next to Zap Cannon Creek in yet another 2130 house, the entry point for the ultra-mysterious 4th way into Whitehead Crossing.

Hucka Doobie, The Bill, and other blog spirits can’t tell me whether we’ll end up in Ashville or not in our old age. I don’t think it’s been settled yet, even. Too many variables yet to sort out. But at least I have *2* good options, thinking back on the recent, more microcosmic Noru vs Rubi situation as well. Both were good choices going in, and there were no real winners and losers. More choices along the way eventually indicated that Noru was a better pick than Rubi. Noru might be Ashville, you see. I have to think carefully about that covering my woodsy tracks thing in relation to Ashville. Blue Mountain, like I said: not as much a problem, although I have to think about it here as well.

I don’t look like a college student any longer. I was in my early 30s when I first staying in Ashville. Now I could just look like a creepy old man, pheh.

Hucka D.:

Go back to Bill Creek. Explore a bit more. Take the last train to Clarksville. Shuffle off to Buffalo. See you soon!

the 2nd Ashville, and another Apocalypse Now connection?

This would be Ashville, Ohio, the only other US town of that name besides the one we now plan to move to in 7-10 years. In Ashville, Ohio’s immediate area is found both a Robtown and a Duvall. Might point to Robert Duvall, who also starred in Apocalypse Now and recited the iconic phrase, “I love the smell of napalm in the morning.” *And* there is also a MASH connection (!). Duvall played Frank Burns in the movie that the series was based upon later, which, of course, featured Jame Farr as Maxwell Klinger.

We’ve also mentioned another Duvall town in this blog (Washington state), connected at the time with Shelly Duvall, star of The Shining. No relation to Robert as far as I can tell.

Bill Creek

Today checked out some of the Ashville scene I hadn’t visited in a while, in an attempt to reinforce our decision to move there. 1st up was a visit to the town’s botanical garden, which was a great location — hadn’t been there in 2 decades and remembered basically nothing about it. Didn’t take any pics, though. Then I went to the Woodrow Wilson College property and hiked down to Bill Creek on their trails. The wife and I rented a house for 2 years next to Bill Creek about 2 decades back, so I *thought* I was fairly familiar with its passage through college property just north of us at the time. I was wrong. I basically remembered *nothing* about what I saw down in there. It was much more beautiful and complex that I recall. Chalk up another positive for Ashville.

Below is a snapshot of Bill Creek soon after the main trail meets it. I was quickly impressed beyond before; the creek was much longer through here that I remembered, with cascades, pools, cliffs, rocky beaches, lots of stuff…

… including numerous signs of man.

I *do* recall this broken dam. I just didn’t remember it being so cool. And I was startled to look down into the heart of the fallen dam from my perch above to see the 4 colors of TILE reflected back up to me on a chain of triangular flags, suspended, it seemed, from old dam logs.* It was an improbable sight at this place. I *knew* it had to be a sign. I knew this had to be another TILE Falls, in effect.

Further up the stream, 2 fallen tree trunks act as ebony and ivory style complementary bridges.

IMG_0091smaller

Another beautiful and unexpected setting.

More signs of man. This was found on a trace of a path off the main path, just before it meets the creek.

Back to the dam: you can see the flags a little better in this picture.

With the discovery of these TILE Falls, we might have made a direct link between Blue Mountain hiking mythos and Ashville. Are toy avatars also present in the latter location? Probably.

There appears to be plenty of possibilities for future toy happenings even in this small area of the Ashville neighborhood.

Ashville & Blue Mountain

karozatbillshouse

Big decisions in next 6 years. Whether to remain in Blue Mtn. or move center of operations to Ashville. Above is a picture of a house in the center of the Ashville Arts District, whose future development plays a role in the decision for certain. Not 50 percent or anything like that, just a definite fraction of some kind. So what I might start doing in this blog is give updates on this District… big things are in store for it soon.

http://www.citizen-times.com/story/news/local/2014/10/06/asheville-informs-residents-innovation-districts/16837029/

We also have a chance to really develop the property we will possibly set up a modular home on. I won’t give a *lot* of details, just some. The parcel we will own will probably be a little under an acre, quite a bit of land then, and double what we have currently. We’re planning on eliminating close neighbors — ones we shared a drive with, ones whose porch is about 15 feet from our porch, and so on. We will have more *breathing space*, yet be convenient to downtown and all the amenities there.

Another area I want to study in Ashville is the Woodrow Wilson College, named after the Princeton man president. Wilson famously appears in the last shots of The Shining. He is holding down the right arm of Jack, who seems to be attempting to reveal the contents of a piece of paper held between his thumb and fingers on that hand. Is it now the mystery of Woodrow Wilson College? What of the more recent UMAPS find called the “boss glyph”? (more on that soon) Woodrow Wilson sometimes called Woody Wilson at the college.

We lived in Ashville for 3 years already. Wife grew up there. We may move back near old homestead. I remember long walks listening to Sibelius at the time. Then Sibelius (and Eno State Park) got me through the subsequent 2 years in Durham.

We got tired of Ashville before after 3 years. We went to Durham, soon to move back to Blue Mtn. Why would this time be different? We would have family in Ashville. Friends. We don’t really have that in Blue Mountain. As stated before, Blue Mountain is really Bluefield. Maybe Brammie the Bramwell dog has answers… if we can find it.

Thoughts

The wife and I spent part of the weekend in Ashville, the only other place in Ame. perhaps that we would retire in except for Blue Mountain. Blue Mountain, by the way, and I’ll only say this in a few places in this blog, is actually the Bluefield VA/WV area. To remind, we live here…

10173675_10203420152733516_826796517_n

… but are looking to move here…

Well, if we move to Ashville, then what about the Frank and Herman Park mythology, I ask myself (and I hear the reader or readers asking me, in turn)? Isn’t this blog suppose to be all about that, and, by extension, Blue Mountain? That’s the big question. I have about 7-10 years to figure it all out; we’re “stuck” in Blue Mountain because of our jobs until then. What’s the attraction to Ashville? Well, it’s a considerably larger town, with more entertainment options. At least 4 Starbucks at last count. Lots and lots of restaurants, and, maybe most importantly, a still growing art scene, thanks in part to the oh so nifty River Arts District. As regular readers of my blog know, I’ve started a Sunklands site where I just display my collages without commercial attachments. Sitting behind them are the carrcasses, which I *know* I’ll never make any money off of but still must produce on a semi-regular basis — or, more correctly, when the time comes to make them. I *have* to make them. So I don’t think that’s going to stop, and also I must figure out the best ways to preserve my carrcasses for the future. Collages — since they’re born digital — not so worried about in that respect. And I think now that collages have the upper hand over carrcasses. Hard to explain, but a subtle shift has occurred lately with the recent creation of so many collages in the Gilatona-Lis and Falmouth series. And that is reflected in the Sunklands site’s creation. Cobbling it together is making me realize that the carrcasses, while still being produced, must remain hidden and perhaps separate from the “ordinary” (2d/flat) collages, more attached to Second Life. And that’s another thing: I believe I’ll always have a regular or semi-regular presence in a virtual world. How long it will continue to be Second life is a question I can’t answer right now. But someday it will shift to another world, and I have a feeling a much cheaper option will develop, a more parallel set-up between web and virtual world. Right now I’m pretty happy with the continued development of Collagesity and the possibility of more collages being added onto the large Falmouth series, extending its depth and breadth even further. And here’s a relatively new idea: I might lump *all* digital collages produced so far into an overarching “Embarras” (pronouced AM-braw) concept, named for the river that flows through Jasper County, Illinois and past almost all the namesake towns of the various series created so far, beginning with 2004’s Greenup.

But I might name it Ambraw, an archaic, phonetic spelling of the river.

Patiently…

… waiting for the Other Side to open up. 1 week. 8/8/.

Hucka D.:

This happened before.

That looks like an amalgamation of Master Shake and his bud Meatwad. [Even accompanied by Frylock’s eye.] But it’s obviously Cygnus X-1 and its accompanying black hole.

Hucka D.:

What do you want me to say?

Greater Collagesity has fractured into east, west, south, center, perhaps even north.

Hucka D.:

North is left out.

New Collagesity underground and its railroad tunnels…

… has a psychic link with the railroad tunnel running underneath the old Devizes, UK castle site. So says town clairvoyant Adam Westend, whose namesake house in Collagesity’s far west region was demolished recovered demolished in the recent earthquake. The large Fal Mouth Moon Gallery towering above the underground, a slight alteration of a Moard Ling structure called “castle 12”, logically dovetails with the Devizes Castle itself. Interesting (!) Westend also divines that a recent Devizes area (Roundway) crop circle in the Real World is actually a hyperdimensional map of the Collagesity Underground as it extends into other towns both real and virtual.
