Mentor(s)

This is my mentor for my Etsy photos. Perhaps I should re-evaluate my choice. What do you think?

NEW STUFF

Je me presente La Swan....Heck no I can't speak French! Introducing my new limited edition Swan earrings made of hammered 16g half-hard silver wire. The inner wire represents the wings and the clear Swarovski crystals "feathers". For some reason of late, I am attracted to swans; lovely creatures, but somewhat aggressive when provoked. Kind of like humans w/o the provocation. Better and less expensive than a shoe fetish or worse, a perverse one. What is next? Only the Shadow knows!

Today

Today is my sister Vanna's birthday(you pronounce her name Vahnna~ not with a long a sound). Drives me crazy when her beautiful name is mispronounced! Ok? Went to the First Nations Squaxin Island Canoe Landing and Potlatch/Protocol. Beautiful stories, songs, prayers and dancing. Fills me with pride to see the tribal gathering and families. Did you know there were Legends of the seven inlets found in the South Puget Sound,or The Ten Rules of the Canoe? NEVER CALL A CANOE A BOAT! Rule #1: "Every stroke we take is one less we have to make ~ Keep going! Even against the most relentless wind or retrograde tide, somehow a canoe moves forward. This mystery can only be explained by the fact that each pull forward is a real movement and not a delusion."
