    … seems like I have been doing a lot of wandering from subject matter to subject matter and it is time to return to one of my favorite subjects … Great Blue Herons. So here is a shot I took of one as he was leaving the ponds to go roost in a tree … a strong banking climb out as he gained altitude and headed to the grove where many of the herons roost.

    A lot of work on the ironstone opal piece with the strong blue/lavender colors today. I’m ending up carving it as there are areas of the piece that just have to go and can’t do the work on the wheels … these areas were not meant to be there. Also I’m going to use a trim saw to make two pieces out of it as it is the only way I can get the shape of the main stone I want and have a second stone that will also be worth keeping. I’ll send out a couple of photos tomorrow night.

    Long day, short missive … keep breathing and enjoy the moment … that is where we are.

    Smile,

    The silent universe goes on its way,
    Scornful of twaddling bugs’ sophistic lore,
    The myriad stars shine nightly in the sky,
    The earth yields forth her budding brood in spring;
    All nature moves as by a hand unseen.
    And not one jot of all of this can I change,
    Nor you, my mortal friend, whoe’er you are.
     — Max Ehrmann

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
