International Women's Day 2011, Lyons, Colorado

JUST HOLD ONTO THE BEAUTY OF IT ALL

Yesterday we met on the bridge at Sally's House, 8 women, one young girl, and a dog named La La Sioux. We shared our stories and our secrets. We blessed the women of the world with cornmeal as we leaned over the North St. Vrain River on Apple Valley Road. (two of our friends had to leave early). La La Sioux may have had her doubts. We shared fruit, tea,and home made breads.

The theme I came away with was: "Just hold onto the beauty of it all." --PJO

Collaboration with Emily Miller Bond--Boulder Composer


We are in the process of adding original art by Phyllis J. O'Rourke, M.A., to the website of Emily Miller Bond, a Boulder, Colorado, composer extraordinare. A learning curve was encountered, and a breakthrough occurred.

Here is a link to one of the most incredible music sites on the web: http://www.emilymillerbond.com/

Voila! And now for the images we will be using assuming the web designer can use what we have created so far.
