The Beginning and More Links

The idea for this blog was inspired due to my dad's death this summer and the subsequent writing of living wills, health directives, etc. for my own...
I have done a bit of body disposal research and will be working on a cemetery project, which will be documented.

"Compost to compost" ak "Ashes to ashes, dust to dust".

com·post
a look at the definition explains ….
–noun
1.
a mixture of various decaying organic substances, as dead leaves or animal remains, used for fertilizing soil.
2.
a composition; compound.

Thinking of my evitable demise… and the problem left for my daughter to dispose of my body… I wonder, can I make it easier for her?

By becoming useful: compost
By becoming beautiful: a compound

This is the drive for the project. To create a “cemetery” of compost feeding an orchard, the orchard in turn feeding the living.

To create a beautiful compound to rest and restore the living.
