This bike was in the parking lot at the Museum in Greenwood, BC. It was the most amazingly beautiful bike. I was so taken with it, that I actually went to the dealership when I got back to Vancouver to find out about it. Fortunately, good sense got the better of me and I got back in my car and left. Sometimes I can be a bit too spontaneous and don't think things all the way through. This was clearly 'love at first sight', and would likely have ended badly.... but one of these days....

On the norwegian festival within the harbour festival, there performed a theatre group from Norway, called "Stella Polaris". They showed a performance of theatre, acrobatics, music and dancing .... wonderful combination. If you get the chance to see them, take it! They are normally located in the area of Oslo and perform - mostly in southern Norway - during the summer month.
Quoting their webpage, they show themselfs as:
"Stella Polaris is an independent, non profit theatre from Norway. Situated in Stokke, in the south of Norway. The name refers to the North Star; and the myths of the north. It has been carefully chosen for the reason of adventure, life force, spirits and healing through movement and love. The group was founded in 1985 by Merete Klingen and Per Spildra Borg. Their aim was to make an expressive and visually strong world theatre.
Our productions spans from small storytelling to big outdoor events that explode in colours, music and energy. We are inspired by medieval theatre, combined with impulses of other cultures, minorities, world expressions and times. "

Polaris, the Pole Star, is over the left edge of the silo.
Polaris is about 430 light years away, and it is a classical Cepheid variable star whose distance is still not known to the accuracy we'd like. Think about this distance in terms of the scale of the universe - and Polaris, the North Star, is in our relative backyard. A light year is 5.87 trillion miles. So the North Star is 2,500 trillion miles away, or 27 million times farther away than our Sun is!
Or, even more humbling, it is ten billion times farther away than the Moon, which is the farthest humanity has traveled from our home planet (and we don't even have the technology to do that any more).
Without special revelation (the Scriptures), we can only see God's divine character and his incommunicable attributes through creation. This is enough to hold us accountable, but we cannot see Christ's sacrifice for us, his grace to undeserving sinners. In the light of creation's grandeur, we appear as nothing, an inconsequential mote of dust, and this often drives unbelievers who study astronomy to nihilism and despair - I have heard or read this enunciated many times. But the Bible reveals something more. That God the Son entered space and time, and that we beheld His glory, and that through his grace we might have eternal life. In short, that this God who stretched the cosmos from an ultra-massive point mass (singularity) to the present 100 billion light year universe actually does love weak creatures like us; and that He created us for His glory.

This effect is interesting and easy to achieve. All you need is a tripod and a cable release. Oh yeah......and a fully charged battery!
