Kachina

I pass  Kachina when I run the bike path. She was donated to the Town of Breckenridge in 2004 by my friends, Susie & Rick. That was the same year that Susie was going through chemo and radiation for Ovarian Cancer. Today is Susie's 70th birthday. When I ran today, I sang Happy Birthday in front of Kachina and gave thanks for Susie's health. Kachina sparkled in the sun. Eagle looked alert and ready for flight on this special day.

I'm participating in

    Another wonderful stone! I love that kachina, is it from the navajo tradition? My husband is also a cancer (leukemia) surviver; he went through a stem cell transplant in Aug. 2010, and is doing really well.

    I so love sculpture outdoors. This gal's hair and feathers are fantastic and I love her dress. Those blue skies and mountains, wish I were there. Carol

    What a beautiful gift to give to others. Far better to spend on living art that many can appreciate. And what a wonderful celebration of health.
