The Cleveland Miniaturia Society Inc. was founded in Cleveland, Ohio, on April 18, 1971 as a non-profit organization providing a supportive, wholesome, atmosphere to promote interest in the field of dollhouses, miniature furnishings and accessories. Their goal is to bring together people of like minds in order to share their love of the hobby that captivates them. Their members, adults and adolescents alike, represent all skill levels from beginner to advanced artisan. They participate in activities that allow then to share their individual talents and knowledge, while enjoying the company of entertaining and interesting people. These activities include picnics, visits to view members’ collections, trips to museums, specialty shops and miniature shows.
Writing my name into that book was my father's doing. He believed a person should mark what was theirs. Often on idle Sunday afternoons, he would stand at the bookshelf in our family den and pull one book after another off the shelf and flip the cover open. If there was no name, he’d pull out the pen he kept in his coat pocket and write in his spacious, slanting hand the name he thought belonged there. There were times he got the name the wrong, like once when he thought A Field Guide to Sea Anemones belonged to my brother George, when in fact it belonged to me, and was in fact one of my favorite books. But mostly, my father got the names right. He dated them too, that was another thing. We have to mark what is ours and know its place in history, I’d heard him say a hundred times.
I’ve pondered over the date since then. Turned over the numbers in my mind, rolled them over my tongue: March 25, 1926. I can’t recall the importance of that date. Not my birthday, or any special holiday. My granddaughter has tried to help me research, but all she can find is that the Indians lost to the Browns on that day, and the Senators lost to the Red Sox. My father didn’t care for baseball. More than likely, the date is simply the date he pulled the book from the shelf, as dust motes drifted in the warm den and the grandfather clock ticked away on a day in March.
Most likely the date meant nothing, other than it was his time, and my name: his way of placing us both.
A collaboration art project of Xi Cai, Director of C.X. Silver Gallery, and Will Kerr, Director of Gallery XIV, July 28-29, 2008 in Boston on Thayer Street in the SOWA Arts District. Will and Cai each selected a portrait image of theirs. Will prepared the image as a series of photocopies that they assembled back together. The images were put up within the 'Abraham Obama' billboard tableau outside the row of galleries using billboard paste. Then they followed with adding paint to the image. The image of the little girl is of Cai's mother when she was four. The image is from a 50x32" oil on canvas that is inspired by a half-inch square photo image of her mother's face from the 1930s. In the photo, her mother is in a garden looking up at birds and singing to them. The birds are perched near - but not in - cages. In the 2008 portrait and in the collage version posted in the 'Abraham Obama' wall, the girl's expression reaches out to the viewer. Is she singing? Crying? Calling...for what? What does it mean to you for the little girl to be calling out amidst the row of giant Abraham Obamas? The live video internet streaming was set up by Isaac Meister under Will Kerr's direction. The video streaming has been at abrahamobama.org/view-the-stream. This art event is part of a show entitled 'a politic.' More information on this show can be found at www.galleryxiv.com/.

“the dormant seed within your soul has now spread
roots deep into the fabric of your world, asleep
no longer, you are now sprouting into your true
form, and as you do, so does your neighbor, and
theirs too, and soon the majority of you will bloom!
ooh, what a sight it is to behold, to witness your
liberation and your growth, we stand in awe, and we
applaud your courage and your might, to press
through the hardened soil, one final push through
the birth canal and now you take your first breath
here you stand, in all your glory, uncertain of the
road ahead, yet your light now shines brighter than
in the past, it illuminates a tiny path and as you take
your very first step, it widens open, it aligns with
your true North Star, afraid no more, you now glide
trust your hearts my Dear Ones, follow the bread
crumbs, the past is now just that, a chapter forever
latched, you are starting fresh, there’s no karma
holding you back and it may seem as if there’s no
charted road ahead, yet, you hold the treasure map
each and every one of you is an integral part of the
book, so much so, that without your input there
would be no progress to be made, so embrace your
newfound strength, for as you do, so does everyone
else, and as you all shine, so goes the New Earth” sth

Rudyard Kipling
If
« If you can keep your head when all about you,
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good or talk too wise:
If you can dream and not make dreams your master;
If you can think and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear the words you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them:"Hold on!"
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings--nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And--which is more--you'll be a man, my son!»

Most of the grist for a brew comes from pale barley malt. Devils Backbone stores theirs, in bulk, in their outdoor silo. For further flavor, aroma, and color, the brewery uses 'specialty' malts. Here, a 25 kilogram bag of malt from Bamberg, Germany, rest against the brewpub's mill.
*************
The Brew Ridge Trail meanders through Virginia's scenic Nelson and Albemarle Counties.
On a chilly, dank December afternoon, we toured two of the breweries along that trail: Devils Backbone (brewpub) in Roseland and Blue Mountain (brewery with a tap room) in Afton, both on VA route 151. We were welcomed by good beer, good food, and fine folk.

32 years ago my parents went to Ocean City Maryland with good friends of theirs to enjoy some vacation. The fathers went to a store to get drinks and came back with this bottle of vodka. (the background on it all is hazy depending on who you ask)
They forgot to open it, and decided to save it for the first kid to graduate high school.
They forgot to open it again.
Next mile stone- the last kid to graduate high school.
They forgot to open it again.
Next mile stone- the first kid to graduate college.
They forgot to open it again.
Next mile stone- the last kid to graduate college.
They forgot to open it again.
Next mile stone- the first kid to get married.
They forgot to open it again.
Next mile stone- the first grandchild.
They forgot to open it again.
Each time the mile stone came around, they would tell the story. All the while, all the children were doubting the existence of the bottle because we had never seen it.
Finally, at the last child's wedding, mine, they brought it out and opened it.
I can tell you this, cough syrup tastes better than 32 year old cherry flavored vodka.
Sometimes I feel like this childhood of theirs can't possibly remain so blessed. I grew up in abuse, and I struggle against overprotecting them, but again I don't want them to ever touch on what I went through as a child. But then I look at the domestic abuse home they lived in and my soul shatters. They are resilient, but I wish it hadn't be violence and abuse they were first introduced to. I struggle to show them that their mom is worthy of their regard.

A collaboration art project of Xi Cai, Director of C.X. Silver Gallery, and Will Kerr, Director of Gallery XIV, July 28-29, 2008 in Boston on Thayer Street in the SOWA Arts District. Will and Cai each selected a portrait image of theirs. Will prepared the image as a series of photocopies that they assembled back together. The images were put up within the 'Abraham Obama' billboard tableau outside the row of galleries using billboard paste. Then they followed with adding paint to the image. The image of the little girl is of Cai's mother when she was four. The image is from a 50x32 inch oil on canvas that is inspired by a half-inch square photo image of her mother's face from the 1930s.

The stallions around Chaco Canyon in New Mexico like to keep whats theirs theirs.
He kept an eye on us until we were out of sight.
The white in the background are badlands, this is close to Bisti Badlands.
The friends I made have slipped and strayed.
And who's the one that cares
A trifling lot and best forgot -
And that's my tale, and theirs.
Then if my 'friendships break and bend
There's little need to cry
The while I know that every foe
Is faithful till I die.'
-Dorothy Parker

And Boston thought theirs was a big dig. THIS is a big dig, lit up with what must be hundreds of people working 24/7 on ... I can't recall what. Whatever it is, it's reputed to cost $10 Billion to construct.
If
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or, being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;
If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with triumph and disaster
And treat those two imposters just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with wornout tools;
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breath a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on";
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch;
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run -
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man my son!
~Rudyard Kipling~
