Meditations on Barnwood

Description
Striking a deal with some old farmers that wanted their barn dismantled, one man, craving a challenge, deconstructed a 100-year-old barn--by himself. Through the last heat of summer, the fair wet weather of fall and the freezing wind of winter he picked apart a building that saw a century unfold. Using prime redwood and cedar the builders expected it to be an icon of the farming culture, but surely they never expected a middle-aged nurse to be the one to slip her mighty beams to the ground and use them in decorating his home. In this poetic adventure of demolition, the man finds more than the prize of wood in his labors and gives a panoramic view of life as an adventurer and somewhat incongruously as a nurse. Both world's collide as he struggles against the behemoth barn and his "day" job. From thirty feet atop a barn and in the dark cold moments of death in the Emergency Room he tells a story of remembrance, renewal, Zen, fate, fortune, and healing.
