This site is dedicated to my grandfather George Adams,
another backwoods carpenter with a radiant heart.

pleni sunt caeli = the heavens are full
Today we live in a world of GPS and cell phones, computers and DNA.
Our footprints are on the Moon.
Fading gods and other childish notions are falling behind now,
with the fairies and unicorns.
We need new visions - dreams of new journeys -
journeys out to stars and galaxies,
down into cells and quarks
and deep within the human heart.
Beginning in Kenya:
<<<<< 1,500,000 BC
Reaching to the Moon:
1969 AD >>>>>
Come, my friends, ’Tis not too late to seek a newer world.
Come, my friends,
’Tis not too late to seek a newer world.
Push off, and sitting well in order smite
The sounding furrows; for my purpose holds
To sail beyond the sunset, and the baths
Of all the western stars, until I die.
It may be that the gulfs will wash us down:
It may be we shall touch the Happy Isles,
And see the great Achilles, whom we knew.
Tho’ much is taken, much abides; and tho’
We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
— Tennyson. . .
