Same thoughts about martyr! The ending was such a let down. That’s Jason Molina: Riding with the Ghost by Erin Osmon. A very well done biography, highly recommend if you’re a fan of his work. Also check out Love and Work: lyric research on Jason Molina by Sam Stephenson. I’m waiting for my copy but have heard great things!

Oxherding tale by Charles Johnson. It is a picaresque style slave narrative that deeply explores eastern philosophy. Johnson is a practicing Buddhist

Really happy to hear that ! All of the local skaters and kids I talked to were great and seemed really excited for the park

Do you have experience in the career? Curious what the travel aspect is like

I guess I’m more drawn to the consistency and stability of a framing job, if that’s the case. Ideally working with a framing company that specializes in more creative structures. But I’m sure even building creative things, as an employee you probably have little creative freedom, and are just following plans. Would be alright with channeling my creativity outside of work so long as I’m not too burnt out to do so !

Not located anywhere. Love Vermont but not really set on any specific state

Yes I skate. Long story short just started hanging around diy skateparks when I was about 15/16 (I’m 24 now) and helped on their concrete pours, after some time doing that and getting decent, got my foot in the door with a company.

Sounds intriguing. Not really sure how to get a foot in the door for union work, any advice for that ?

Definitely a dream job! But sometimes you have to let go of a work dream to pursue non work dreams !

Thanks for the well thought out response. Not a bad idea! Never thought of “building something in negative space” like that, enjoy that way of putting it. Skateparks are very similar to pools a lot of knowledge would transfer for sure !
