Beautifully written. Sad to think of all the wonderful places and things that have been lost forever, except hopefully in memories that can be captured.

Very beautifully written-thanks!
To Mary: interesting choice of words–I hope memory is the only thing “spark”ed . . .

I had forgotten the letter until I read your post which makes me hopeful the knowledge is not lost, just forgotten until a spark ignites a memory in someone, somewhere.

Thanks for the post Sara, it beautifully sums up the surreality of the last week.

Greg, I can’t even tell you how hard I tried to work that howling guy into the post…I even have a postcard of that exhibit. But I just couldn’t explain it in ANY way that made sense. Hmmm… maybe cause it doesn’t? But it is definitely my favorite thing at the museum:)
Oh… and Thanks:)

This is great, Sara, because now when people ask me about the fires and if they’ve impacted me, I’ll just say “What she said!”

I have seen that exhibit, too, though I didn’t remember that quote. But it is perfect for the occasion. If you could’ve gotten the guy howling like a wolf into the post, too, that would’ve been even more impressive than it already is….

Thanks, Lee! The fire has definitely put me in a pensive mood. And your comment was pretty poetic itself:)

Beautifully said, Sara.
The orange light.
The knowledge lost.
poetic.

Sigh.

Thanks for sharing,
Namaste and a Hug,
