All Saints Day, November 1.  When I went to the car this morning to depart from the Grunewald Guild after two richly creative and happy months, this is what I saw on the windshield.    I couldn't help but be reminded of all the spangling stars I've been living with  (and cutting) over the two months.      So the hardest work is done, and I"m now back in Seattle. In couple of weeks once the support framework is delivered, I'll settle down again to cement this piece together, grout it, and then place it in storage until, along with Michael Schultheis' companion cosmos piece (to be painted over the next six months), it will be installed in the new Center for Science and Innnovation at Seattle U in the summer of 2021.    The stellar ice crystals this morning were a nice touch from the Creator, I think. They put me in mind, again, of my favorite poem, Mary Oliver's "Instructions for living a life," Pay attention.  Be Astonished.
