"The world as we know is an elephant's howdah; The elephant stands on the back of a turtle; The turtle in turn on a rock in the ocean." Robert Frost

Collages
I have recently discovered how to make collages on the computer so thought I would share one. This represents one of my side trips in Norway when I went there to a conference in September of 2007. The side trip was to Roros, Norway - a very old town founded in 1644 as a copper mining town. In 1980, UNESCO listed the town as a World Heritage Site based on the preservation of its original wooden buildings. I would love to return in the middle of the winter to see the town covered in snow and huddle by one of its fireplaces. I did get to experience eating reindeer (sorry Rudolph) and found it surprisingly delicious. It was a beautiful drive from the western coast of Norway (Trondheim) up into the hills following salmon-filled streams and winding along beautiful valleys. A wonderful experience!
