I was looking at some Coast Salish art the other day n saw this basket from Quinault that is now woven into my mind. It was a very simple two color grid pattern of alternating zigzags that I liked well enough to linger on it, but once I read that the pattern is often described as "the water rippling from the bow of a canoe" it took on this extra layer of beauty and I can't stop thinking about it. It's just zigzags, but it really looks like rippling water! By the time I saw it the grass it's woven of is yellow and orange, not colors I associate with water personally, but I can still see the fluid motion of a river or lake being split by a boat. It never ceases to amaze me the beautiful patterns people throughout history manage to create with just a few different colors and the grid pattern from weaving.

#op tag #I need to. find an image with that pattern on it to show here. #or at least just to save?? so I can look at it again #I need to go find some local shops or smth that sell indigenous made salish art #cause I could look at it forever

My grandpa taught me how to play chess - on one of our annual trips to lake quinault lodge. In the lobby, beside the giant fireplace. It had probably been too miserable and cloudy to go outside that day. It was the 90's - instead of internet on vacation we had things like old growth trees, and weirdly shaped driftwood, and elaborately carved 'rain gauges' (guage) as if being able to see the accumulation could make the olympic's perpetual rain exciting (it didn't) .

#Coincidentally this was also the trip when grandma told me that you could keep cougars away by clacking rocks together #I still cant believe i believed that for like twenty years #Journal shit #You know in the hunger games how katniss makes johanna a satchel of pine needles #That stereotype is very true my ideal image of home is that lodge with the smell of pine and cedar
