Hi all -- it was refreshing to reboot posts on this blog last month. I am continuing on, even if some posts are updates/notes rather than full-blown articles. It will be good to restore some continuity here.
With that in mind... an update!
Since the first labyrinth post, I have heard of at least one other local labyrinth here in the Portland area:
-- on the front lawn of St. Luke's church on State Street, just a short stroll from the Green Hand Bookshop! (thanks Rudi!!)
I've also begun chatting with Ethan Stebbins, who installed the stone labyrinth behind UNE's Payson Gallery, and hope to visit that site soon and report back. His current work is gorgeous, and unites his stonework into wood furniture, with breathtaking results:

As the cold settles into the ground, and brittle sounds snap back as we step on ice and snow on our way home through the darkening winter world, I hope you all have cozy corners to curl up in and good friends to spend time with. Here's to shining our light into all the corners of our overlapping worlds as we step forward each day.
