More Organic Than Organized

Villa Maria 2014Woolly brother Mark Odegard has suggested that we devote the next year (me in absentia) to documenting our process, our history, our way of being Woolly Mammoths. The premise is a good one. We’ve done something that worked since we’ve now been together over 25 years. An unstated premise is also a good one. We’re in the third phase of our life now and what moving vans don’t disrupt, illness and death will.

We’ve had conversations about telling our story, but it’s never gone anywhere. That’s largely because our structure has been strong, but informal, never working like an organization. We have been more organic than organized.

Mark’s idea seems like a good one to me.
