Gus in the centre of the Vancouver Public Labyrinth!
Gus in the centre of the Vancouver Public Labyrinth!
Yay!
This unexpected video find is bringing me such happiness!
My intention was to add two smaller Labyrinths in-between my Vancouver Public Labyrinth and the pathway along the False Creek Seawall.
This “wee” one is a classic design three lane Labyrinth made of small stones.
It’s a placeholder until I have time and energy to build a larger one using larger rocks.
Perhaps its fine as it is?
It certainly brought a smile to this Labyrinth’s Walker as we can see in the end of her video. . .
Plus she re-positioned a few misplaced stones along the way! Appreciated!
Walking my wading pool Labyrinth in Christie Pits Park . . .
The orange concentric circle arcs are fading in colour.
I really need to return and repaint them.
Made it to the Centre!
Heart of the Labyrinth!
All smiles, Yay!
Made it to the Centre! Again!
Heart of the Labyrinth!
Still smiling, Yay!
Friday night, I invested the better part of an hour chalking an entire Labyrinth in one of the Entertainment District’s car-free intersections on Granville Street.
Curious to see how much of it survived the day’s vehicle traffic, I returned Saturday night after the street was again closed off to cars and open for people.
Finding my previous night’s faint chalk outline had survived in varying degrees, the Labyrinth remained walkable.
I went for a test walk, and in doing so, a young boy with his mom observing, also began walking it.
A pleasant conversation followed and the young boy and his mom thanked me.
That was enough to confirm what I was going to do anyway, re-chalk the outline of the faded Labyrinth.
I decided to leave the aglets without re-chalked hearts at each of the turns.
I only redrew Hearts at the entrance and the centre this time. A rare decision on my part.
A safe estimate would be that hundreds of people walked, ran, laughed, and made this Labyrinth a part of their party night along Granville Street in Downtown Vancouver.
Including this young Lady, Karen, who stood out for me, as I saw her truly engage and explore and invest much time walking the Labyrinth.
Unexpectedly, found her instagram post, and here it is…
Whoa…
First drone photo I’ve seen of the High Park Labyrinth in Toronto . . .
And congrats to the soon-to-be new parents!
It’s True!
And if anyone already had a happy childhood,
It’s never too late to have a happy childhood… again !
