This is a picture of the lower part of a graduation wall. (In this case “graduation” has nothing to do with passing the finals and getting the diploma.)
These are huge walls of blackthorn brushwood stacked in large frames. They were once used to extract the salt from the salt water of nearby saline springs. The extraction process required brine to trickle down through the brushwood, which resulted in the salt content being increased by natural evaporation.
Today the graduation walls are surrounded by a park, which is considered to be the biggest open-air inhalatorium in Europe.
The Salinental-valley is part of in the Nahe-valley near Bad Kreuznach.
Walking among the graduation walls in this beautiful park and inhaling the salty air treats you respiratory system to the same benefits as a seaside respite.
The school year is coming to a close. These lovely Inuit ladies represent hope for the future in Canada's arctic. Thier Arnautiks, made by two of our teachers, are a playful nod to their heritage and the traditional grad caps, with the gold tassle, a recognition of the new ways. I wish them all well. I was pleased they asked me to take their photos today.
I think this image also fits with ODC "caring for" in that these young ladies have overcome tremendous odds to become graduates this year. Less than 20% of Inuit in this region rise to this challenge. It is in a sense, caring for themselves and their future that they have risen above the odds to reach this milestone.
Once again Aston's graduation ceremonies were held at the impressive Birmingham Town Hall, followed by food, drink and entertainment back on campus. Over 1000 students graduated, in 9 ceremonies over 5 days.

This was a rose that was given to each graduate to give to someone who inspired them and helped them get to the point of graduating. My sister-in-law, who graduated with me gave me hers stating that without my help she never would have gone that far... I gave her mine for giving me the incentive to do the best that I possibly could.... Then we cried....
I dedicate this image to her, Brenda. Thanks again for all that you have done and all you do!!
I will try to get on as often as possible, but I'm going out tomorrow for a bachelorette party and the next day I'm off to the Bronx Zoo with my son!! I'm so looking forward to that!! Take care everyone!! Hope you all have an amazing weekend!! ^_^
Taken in the Cultural Quarter of Southampton during Graduation Week for Solent University (Southampton, England)
My graduation ceremony will be tomorrow at 7 ! I'm so excited more than my birthday party which will be on Thursday 23/2/2011 at our home . The most exciting thing is that I'm completing my bachelor in the same university and same major . ;) Wish me good luck .
Done for my #1 granddaughter, Brianna, for her graduation from high school this coming Friday, May 25, 2007. The design is from a magazine called "Cross Stitch For All Seasons 2002". It's not a x-st design - go figure! I saved a copy of the design and long ago passed the magazine on to a friend who does a lot of cross stitch. I plan to use it for gifts as each of the grands makes this Rite of Passage.
At the time of posting these shots, it's graduation season. So in honor of our graduates, here is a series of Tilly from Graduation Week a few years ago.
