- Hamma Hamma Balds Natural Area Preserve (dnr.wa.gov)
This 957-acre site protects a montane herbaceous bald ecosystem that supports two additional rare ecological features identified in the Washington State Natural Heritage Plan: the Roemer’s fescue-field chickweed-Junegrass community and the common bluecup plant (which actually is not very common in Washington State).
- John Cage (Wikipedia)
John Milton Cage Jr. (September 5, 1912 – August 12, 1992) was an American composer and music theorist. A pioneer of indeterminacy in music, electroacoustic music, and non-standard use of musical instruments, Cage was one of the leading figures of the post-war avant-garde. Critics have lauded him as one of the most influential composers of the 20th century. He was also instrumental in the development of modern dance, mostly through his association with choreographer Merce Cunningham, who was also Cage’s romantic partner for most of their lives.
