Matanza....Wasn't That In January

It was but I never really got around to posting any of the images due to the fact that they were pretty graphic....It is the butchering, cooking and enjoying of a pig. For a while there I was rethinking my love for pork and then I remembered where BACON comes from and no longer gave a fuck. Thanks to our good friends Josette & Scott for the invite - I hope to do it again next year.

Blood, Pig Heads & Guts below....Proceed at your own risk.

    Marc, I appreciate you posting these. When I was in high school and later on in Hawaii I lived on farms. Butchering was part of life. It's always startling to me to hear people say how heinous it is to raise one's meat because these are people who eat meat but have always bought it at the store. They have so sense of the life that was sacraficed so they could live. Every time I have caught a fish for supper or eaten a rabbit that I'd raised I have felt humbled and grateful and have come to a clearer understanding that someday I will also be food for something.

    I like these photographs. They are a great piece of Life. Way to go. Carm.

    Love love love...but the one with the water bottles bugs the shit out of me...you said fuck, I figure I would say shit. I know you think it's "art" but it took me forever to remove those bottles, only to have the guy pull the entire head out messing up the shot I wanted to you to get!

    That was a great day....you can go again if you get more rest the night before.
