Such is the nature of a hand crafted object. Marks from the hands of the maker of the item are part of the signature on the piece, and add to the richness of its beauty. Experiences and challenges in our lives are part of the tapestry that give our existence texture and meaning.
As always, please feel free to leave me a comment, or a stone (o), to let me know that you’ve stopped by.
It was a busy weekend in the Village of Peninsula, nestled in the beautiful Cuyahoga Valley. It was a time for discovery and adventure as the yearly Spring Stroll welcomed the new season to the Valley.
The population soared as families came to the Village to share in the magical adventures of the season. The Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railway brought Thomas the Tank Engine to the Valley again this year.
Fairy houses and gardens were all over the Village. Ronda from the Downtown Emporium created a map, and fairy lovers of all ages looked to see if they could answer all the questions: how many fairies live here? can you find the octopus? what is the name of the fairy house?
Imagine yourself discovering some of these magical dwellings. Look carefully; you might just see a sprite.
Come back on Wednesday and you’ll see more photos of the fairy dwellings behind our studio and gallery.
Take a moment to realize that in the United States, Memorial Day is more than a 3 day weekend. To read more, hop on over to Travis Erwin’s. He is the guy who is the MTM chief cook and bottle washer. He always has something interesting to say, and also posts links to other bloggers who write about their towns.
