&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;“It was mayhem,” he added. It is no longer mayhem here, but [Clingstone] still has an appealingly offhand and bohemian vibe. “It’s an organic house,” said John Benson, Nicholas’s father, whose nickname is Fud. Like his son, he is a stone carver, and a cousin of Mr. Wood’s. “It’s a house that has existed in a family that has always prized what we call the real world, which is the world of water and wind and stone and wood.”&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Last Saturday as we biked home from the beach we passed a lemonade stand. The kids were too cute, begging us to stop, but neither of us had any cash. “It’s free! It’s free!” Fucking adorable. &lt;strike&gt;I can’t wait till I have a whole house full of them and their sandy little feet&lt;/strike&gt;. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://caryrandolph.tumblr.com/post/134185303</link><guid>http://caryrandolph.tumblr.com/post/134185303</guid><pubDate>Thu, 02 Jul 2009 11:04:00 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>"Carefree, sorry I missed your call.
