Friday Field Notes

Loblolly Pine on Light Green Pocket Size Moleskine Journal Notebook Are you traveling over the long weekend? Where to? Either way, are you at least making your way to a Memorial Day weekend barbecue like I hope to do? Whatever you do, have a great time. In other notes, here are a few things I’ve come across this week:

- This campy pine journal (above) from Subtle Arts on Etsy just makes me want to hole up in a woodsy cabin for a few days.
- I somehow lost my summer straw hat, so I’m looking for a new one. I like this one–in natural or black?
- Check out these cool new ZigZag city guides for kids (which I found via Daily Candy).
- Did you know that all of your photos on Kodak Gallery’s website will move to Shutterfly on July 2, 2012? I just made an archival DVD, just to be safe.
- Please read this New York Times story about champion midwife Ina May Gaskin. I hate the article’s title, “Mommy Wars: The Prequel” (ugh), but I love what the writer has to say. Like the author, I read both of Ina May Gaskin’s books. Like the author, my daughter arrived via a c-section (in my case, for a breech position and low amniotic fluid). And like the author, I don’t think I’d travel to the Farm, but the facts and philosophies behind home births resonate with me. I’d love to know your thoughts.
