This picture is for the heading “liquid” in the photo scavenger hunt challenge that I’m in on Facebook.<\/p>\n

\nIt is actually a close up of a bronze statue in a little parkette near where I work. The statue is called “harvester.” I guess it is left to our imagination to decide whether it’s just water that the labourer is harvesting from the jug or whether it’s “the juice of the barley.” Anyway, I think that the picture suggests that moment between thirst and when thirst is quenched and maybe his\/our thirst never will be quenched. Will we ever really be “there”?<\/p>\n

The parkette is actually dedicated to two sculptors who lived nearby – here is their story<\/a> with more pictures of the bronzes in the park.<\/p>\n

A few years ago, I used another statue in the park as a model for my Queen of the Earth shawl.  Here is the statue entitled “Young Girl.”<\/p>\n

\nand here she is wearing “Queen of the Earth” shawl.<\/p>\n

\nThis picture was actually taken by my good friend Louise Whyte. I love it.  I had to go back to the park today to retake the photo of the second statue.  The first time, my batteries ran out – go figure.<\/p>\n

I guess that the business lesson here would be.  Always keep your batteries charged and do the things that charge your batteries.  It’s all about the “juice.”<\/p>\n

Have a great 11.11.11.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
