First, I don't have a place on my blog (or elsewhere) that includes the images of my altered book/art based on the Swedish botanist Lindman. In fact, I never took a single digital image of the work until the day I snapped a shot in order to send to you. I do thank you, however, for being willing to link to these images. Yet, the important thing never was my work...it was always your fine stitching for a juried show. Again, congratulations! <BR/><BR/>Now, about Maypoles and celebrations...your images reminded me of my youth. My parents had a summer study program (my younger sister runs it now) to Salzburg, Austria. As a family, we lived outside of town in a tiny village called Glanegg, just at the foot of the Untersberg Mountain. One summer, neighbors contracted to enlarge their house/business. Once the roof beams were in place, a tiny tree/Maypole was erected on the top and there was a fantastic party in celebration of the upcoming completion of the building. Your images brought back all these happy memories. Thank you so much!<BR/>SusanSusan Lenzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13828597703914908801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136341998101494152.post-12599160186383430792007-06-25T22:38:00.000+02:002007-06-25T22:38:00.000+02:00Sounds like fun!

It was a tall pole with ropes off the top that we swung around on.Shirley Goodwinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01479768160284996206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136341998101494152.post-57954546285236205422007-06-23T00:43:00.000+02:002007-06-23T00:43:00.000+02:00Wish you a wonderful Midsummer eve!Wish you a wonderful Midsummer eve!FARBTUPFERhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01324595097898202583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136341998101494152.post-55704489221466851532007-06-22T23:34:00.000+02:002007-06-22T23:34:00.000+02:00enjoy midsummer`s eve!
