Circle Game

My postings and photograph titles are often inspired by music. I recently enjoyed a revisit and close listen to Circle Game by Joni Mitchell (truth be told it was several close listens).

 

Made me think about my parenting experience having raised three sons. The themes in the song are very much on target with me at this time. The song also brought me back to my photo archive and a memorable visit to "The House on the Rock" near Spring Green, Wisconsin in 2019 with my youngest. He is a huge fan of author Neil Gaiman and the site is featured prominently in one of Gaiman's books (American Gods) AND the TV series (with scenes filmed on location), so we were more pilgrims than tourists that day.

 

This, an image of a small portion of the carousel horse collection on the wall near the grand carousel. These are full-size carousel horses.

 

Fair warning: Do not visit "The House on the Rock" (in particular "the museum") unless you know what you are in for.

 

I do, however, fully endorse a read of "American Gods" with no prior knowledge necessary.
