A Tree Stump Can Be a Work of Art

A Tree Stump Can Be a Work of Art

My early morning bike ride today took me north on highway 36 to Niwot road. From there I went east to 95th St. and then south to Valmont before heading back into Boulder. I rode a total of 23 miles with an average speed of 15.3 mph.

When I passed through Niwot I noticed the wooden sculpture was unveiled. The sculpture is carved directly in the wood of a large tree trunk. There are actually two sculptures on two different tree trunks, but it was so early the light was only bright enough on one of them to photograph.

In the photo you’ll see the artist’s scaffolding is still in place so they must not be finished. I am not sure who is doing the sculpture but they are true works of art. I think it is amazing how a simple tree stump can be converted into an extraordinary one-of-a-kind sculpture.

Summer Solstice Fire Ceremony

Summer Solstice Fire Ceremony

I attended a summer solstice celebration at the Shepherd Valley Waldorf School in Niwot Colorado on Friday night. It was a small gathering with about a dozen adults and about the same number of kids.

The celebration was simple. We made some prayer flags and then we had a little fire ceremony. At the fire ceremony a few people spoke wishing good health and happiness to all.

Part of the ceremony is to burn something to symbolize letting go of something that is holding you back in your life. Afterwards, there was the opportunity to ‘jump’ over the fire as another symbol of overcoming adversity and challenges in life.

Not too many adults jumped the fire but virtually all of the kids did. The last photo is one of the bigger kids. The photos below captured a few images of the kids jumping over the fire. It was a nice celebration and ended around 9:30.
