A cloud is both a world and a passing shape. It escapes the map, the drawing, the measure.

No two clouds are the same — though we learn to draw them as if they were.

In April, I was invited to join the #CLOUD project, which stands for Clouds Lent Out Use Discipline. It may not look like much yet, but it’s been a long journey to get here—and I still have 24 hours to refine my cloud before handing it off to the next collaborator. Stay tuned!

Lamy and TWSBI are great pens to start a collection.

I’ve been trying my hand at restoring old discarded fountain pens I pick up at estate sales/auctions.

Also, if you haven’t already you can add the fountain pen feed to your feeds.

The New Castle Court House Museum serves as a historical landmark, preserving Delaware’s distinctive border. The 12-Mile Circle remains a fascinating study in colonial boundary-making, demonstrating how geography, law, and politics intersect in shaping territorial divisions.

The circle also extends into the Delaware River, resulting in a segment of Delaware territory that reaches closer to New Jersey than to its own coastline. This unusual claim over water has created unique jurisdictional rights and continues to influence state policies and river governance.

Since 1682, disagreements over the accuracy of the circle’s measurements persisted, fueled by a lack of advanced surveying tools and the challenge of implementing a perfect arc across natural landscapes.

out the border. Using a single building as a geographic anchor for a state boundary is highly unusual and has led to various legal complexities. The boundary’s unusual shape has contributed to jurisdictional disputes, especially with Pennsylvania and Maryland.

the New Castle Court House. This makes Delaware one of the few places in the world where a state border is based on a circular measurement. The precise center of the circle is an exact point within the New Castle Court House tower, which served as a reference for colonial surveyors who mapped

border history and reflects complex colonial agreements from the 17th century. The 12-Mile Circle originated in 1682 when the Duke of York granted the land to William Penn. This agreement stipulated that the northern boundary of the territory (now Delaware) would extend in a 12-mile radius from

So, for the first time today, I noticed the northern border of Delaware is an arc. Delaware’s northern border is defined by a distinct 12-mile circular arc centered on a point in the town of New Castle. This boundary, known as the “12-Mile Circle,” is a rarity in U.S.
