” We are all on a spiral path. No growth takes place in a straight line. There will be setbacks along the way…There will be shadows, but they will be balanced by patches of light and fountains of joy as we grow and progress. Awareness of the pattern is all you need to sustain you along the way… -Kristin Zambuka

I visited the North Island of New Zealand in Febuary 2009 and was lucky enough to get out for a dive to the Poor Knights Islands. Famous for its good sport fishing and even better scuba diving ever since they declared this area a marine park. I was watching these divers make the final preparations for their descent to explore the wonderful reefs in this unique diving location and couldnt help but make a nice picture with some surrounding seaweed. Diving was done with Yukon Charters, Tutukaka.
The gatehouse and pend which link Dunfermline Palace and Abbey. Some of the palace remains are just over the fence on the right, while some of the remains of the Abbey are behind the Gatehouse.. Dunfermline Palace is a former Scottish Royal Palace in Dunfermline, Fife. It is currently a ruin under the care of Historic Scotland and an important tourist attraction in Dunfermline. Dunfermline was a favourite residence of many Scottish monarchs. Documented history of royal residence there begins in the 11th century with Malcolm III who made it his capital. His seat was the nearby Malcolm’s Tower, a few hundred yards to the west of the later palace. In the medieval period David II and James I of Scotland were both born at Dunfermline. Dunfermline Palace is attached to the historic Dunfermline Abbey, occupying a site between the abbey and deep gorge to the south. It is connected to the former monastic residential quarters of the abbey via a Gatehouse above a Pend (or yett), one of Dunfermline’s medieval gates. The building therefore occupies what was originally the guest house of the abbey. However, its remains largely reflect the form in which the building was developed by James IV in a refabrication around 1500. Throughout the sixteenth century, Scotland’s monarchs and Royal family members were frequently in residence. In 1589 the palace was given as a wedding present by the King, James VI, to Anne of Denmark after their marriage. She gave birth to three of their children there; Elizabeth (1596), Charles (1600) and Robert (1602). After the Union of Crowns in 1603, the removal of the Scottish court to London meant that the building came to be rarely visited by a monarch. When Charles I returned in 1633 for his Scottish coronation he only made a brief visit to his place of birth. The last monarch to occupy the palace was Charles II who stayed at Dunfermline in 1650 just before the Battle of Pitreavie. Soon afterwards, during the Cromwellian occupation of Scotland, the building was abandoned and by 1708 it had been unroofed. All that remains of the palace today is the kitchen, its cellars, and the impressive south wall with a commanding prospect over the Firth of Forth to the south. Note / Pend is a Scottish architectural term referring to a passageway that passes through a building, often from a street through to a courtyard, and typically designed for vehicular rather than exclusively pedestrian access. A pend is distinct from a vennel or a close, as it has rooms directly above it, whereas vennels and closes are not covered over but rather are passageways between separate buildings. The OED suggests that the etymology of the word is probably related to the archaic verb pend – “arch, arch over, vault”, this in turn being derived from the French pendre, Latin pendēre “to hang” Historical information from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

The Refectory and Gatehouse, the surviving ruin of Dunfermline Abbey in Dunfermline, Fife, Scotland. The gatehouse is built above a Pend (or yett), one of Dunfermline’s medieval gates. The Abbey Church (out of shot on the right) has been rebuilt and serves the Church of Scotland community of Dunfermline. In 1068 AD, following The Battle of Hastings, the defeated English royal party with Margaret. (born circa 1045 AD) daughter of Edward Atheling, claimant to the English throne, arrive at Dunfermline at the court of Malcolm III. Margaret was married to King Malcolm III in a church at Dunfermline in 1070 AD. She liked the place so much she decided to set up a religious community here, bringing in Benedictine monks from Canterbury to form its core. This first priory at Dunfermline centred on a church, probably built by extending the existing church in which Margaret and Malcolm had been married. The community remained a modest one in Margaret’s time and it was her son, David I, who turned it into an abbey in the years following 1128. The abbey’s domestic buildings were destroyed by the English troops of Edward I in 1303 during the Wars of Independence. It is interesting that the English, who were much less squeamish in their treatment of the Border Abbeys at around the same time, did not touch the Abbey Church. Perhaps respect for the memory of St Margaret and for her strong links with the Benedictine Order in Canterbury and with Rome gave even Edward I some scruples.

Taken at Quinns Rock (1 june 2009) in the afternoon before the storm hit that night…..
Lake Pend Orielle, Idaho, part of Farragut State Park. Buttonhook Bay is on the left, Beaver Bay swimming hole is on the right. Buttonhook Bay lies on the southern shores of the biggest and deepest lake in Idaho; Lake Pend Oreille (pronounced – Pond-o-ray). It is located in the North Idaho Panhandle, approximately 100 miles south of the Canadian border, about 30 miles north of Coeur d’ Alene, Idaho and about 30 miles south of Sandpoint, Idaho (which is the intersection of U.S. Highway 95 and State Highway 54) and then east on Highway 54 another eight miles, through Farragut State Park.

Bwahah!! / PLEASE read this: / OK, I just looked and here we are, TEN DAYS before the voting begins, and there are at least 14 million TERRIFIC entries for this RedBubble-wide Music Machines Challenge. Seriously! After you’re done giggling at my silliness, go look! So why did I make this goofy t-shirt? I had several pretty decent ideas for the challenge. One of them is already on one of the entries!! The idea was so good, someone else thought of it first!! And did a better job than I would have. I’m not a whizz-bang-fabulous draw-er and I’ve never even come close to being “cool.” So, with this shirt I’ve chosen the nerdy musician approach, one I can relate to. This enthusiastic little guy is my idea of a music machine. He looks very much like a someone I used to know, who would turn a scary crimson when he sang. I spent three years of my college career in a Bachelor of Music program, with a Vocal/Choral major, so singing is one of my first loves and I know how much energy is converted to make good sound! / If a machine is something that converts energy to something else, then our mechanism for singing should be considered a machine. Maybe not a supercool one, though…hee!!!
