One of the best things about going to Logan Airport (Boston's international airport) is getting to visit with these creatures of the ocean, set in the floor:
Those are just some--there are more.
This journey, I took the time to read the artist's plaque. They are by Jane Goldman, and the title of the overall work is Atlantic Journey
Apparently it was completed the year we returned to the United States from England: 1998. We'd been in and out of Logan many times before that, but now I can't imagine a journey there that doesn't involve visiting with these guys. (Though actually, any time we're not going to terminal E, the international departures and arrivals terminal, I guess we don't see them ... but almost all our travels involve terminal E, so.)
The title is great, because most people who leave or arrive from that terminal are, in fact, engaged in an Atlantic journey. (Not us when we're heading toward Japan or Timor-Leste, BUT OTHERWISE YES.)
Do you remember the snowy owl I posted about, the one that was rescued and being taken to a rehabilitator? I saw a follow-up story, and she's doing *great*. She had been so weak she couldn't stand and wasn't keeping food down, and now she's putting away many mice and small critters a day. They expect they'll be able to release her in the spring.
I had some year-end thoughts, but if I write them up, they'll go in a different post. Have some more floor sea creatures, under the cut.
( This isn't even all of them! )
