I recently received an envelope from
the above mentioned: diana marshall,
with an open call for entries for a
Fluxus Alphabet. I will be sending mine
after next weekend. Will look forward to
seeing/receiving the booklet.

Hope some of you send something
to be included. The address can be
seen above.

The following was taken last weekend.

Was looking forward to Albany Indian Mounds
in Illinois, but as luck would have it, massive
amounts of gnats were everywhere and cut
our outdoor activities short. You'll see some
of the mounds from the distance. We'll be going
back again to look around more.

Some facts:

This area has been inhabited for at
least 10,000 yrs.
Area is best known for the American Indians
who lived here and constructed the
mounds about 2,000 yrs ago.
The Hopewell culture.
96 mounds were built between
200 AD and 300 AD.
There are less than 50 remaining.
