Black Creek
John Burroughs Nature Sanctuary
Esopus NY
7/13
Black Creek site with 3 stone markings, Ducks, Duck Weed, fish, Water Spiders and many insects and Beaver drawn with West border John Burroughs Nature Sanctuary, a US nature essayist (1837 - 1921) with tradition of Henry David Thoreau and Walt Whitman, built his "Slabsides" cabin with nature and with writing, friends and with selling his fruit and Celery to NYC markets...
"...wild land around Slabsides, which Burroughs named “Whitman Land” after poet and close friend Walt Whitman who visited Burroughs at his home several times, informed many of his essays. Through works written here about nature close at hand, John Burroughs inspired generations of readers to head out-of-doors, and national leaders to preserve land and its wildlife. ..." - https://johnburroughsassociation.org/index.php/visit/8-the-nature-sanctuary "
"Joy in the universe, and keen curiosity about it all - that has been my religion."
"I stand amid the eternal ways" John Burroughs
Full Moon/Capricorn Wednesday/13th with 2:38PM EDT is this year's super Moon because this Full Moon will be closest to Earth, a perigee... traditional peoples called this the Buck Moon, their antlers grow most with this Moon cycle and Thunder Moon with Summer storms and beings...
map shows East - West relationship with Black Creek confluence Hudson River site and triangle Rifton/Esopus/Rosendale...
am looking with working some smaller tributaries with Hudson, Wallkill and Rondout locally... in reading NC Cherokee lore they referred to the smaller tributaries as grandchildren Waterways... did Esopus peoples conceptualize similarly?...
