THE REVELATION
Second time around.
Returning to what you thought you knew.
Changed by time and weather.
Spring had made it’s entry.
The once so smooth carpet, now full of
creases.
Wrinkled and torn by temperatures and underlying
vegetation.
But still holding on to the secret of what’s hiding
beneath.
With shovels and high hopes we go to work.
Eager to reveal the origin, and the base of the
coming construction.
Working through snow and vegetation, to discover a
gift of nature.
A terrain so rich in contrast, for spaces to be made,
and stories to be told.
From the steep cliff in front, facing the valley, the
plateau rises up.
Two ridges of beautiful rock leads into the
landscape.
In between a natural amphitheatre is forming.
Covered with vegetation, a soft contrast to the
adjacent stone.
On the eastern ridge, drawing a line into the
landscape, overlooking the creek and the valley,
and gently touching down on solid rock, the project
would find its place.
