Silence is the absolute poise or balance of body, mind and spirit....

                                                       (Glacier, Montana - 2010)

...The man who preserves his selfhood is ever calm and unshaken by the storms of existence ... What are the fruits of silence? They are self-control, true courage or endurance, patience, dignity and reverence. Silence is the cornerstone of character.

Cathie, your photos of your trip are stunning. I can surely see why you would want to live there. Hope that works out for you.

Love your patchwork beasts! It will be fun to see where you take this.

Nice quote. I don't think I would have ever wanted to leave that spot.
