Stonescape

I just returned from a week of camping and hiking in Acadia National Park, on Mount Desert Island, Maine. I was far from the world of work, the web, buttons and screens. It was a welcome respite, with my eyes to the mountains, and the skies, to read the heavens for signs of rain or stars. I also found time for the guitar and books, to soothe and nourish the inner man.

On a return visit to the summit of Mount Pemetic, I came across this wonder in 3 dimensions, like a friend to greet the temporal visitor, whether on two legs, four, or in flight. On par with any abstract creation that I have seen, with profound dimensions of form, mass, and color, and placed as though by the thumb and forefinger of the Maker.
