Bayfield WI

A seven hour drive from Taliesin, we find ourselves on the southern coast of Lake Superior in Bayfield, Wisconsin. image With a population of 500; it too invites an expanded summer presence… so reminiscent of “our” Bayfield with its beautiful harbor and sailing community. We settle Clo’set in a township park with a site on the  sands of the Lake Superior beach.  To our left over the porcupine Mts. we watch the sun settle into her  diamonds .image

Entertainment tonight is giggling through “The long long trailer”.  Lucy and Desi don’t disappoint as we now can relate to so many of their challenges having spent the last four days living in such confined moving quarters.

Taliesin

imageNumerous times my throat tightened and my eyes moistened as the space that surrounded me embraced the emotions of my soul.

I “get” Frank Lloyd Wright. I understand his passion to mold emotion into space and to bring outside in. I understand his discomfort when harmony is misaligned: the flow of exterior and interior separate…not one.

In my next life I am going to go to school here; at Mr. Wright’s school of architecture. It is the smallest recognized school of its kind in America.  You live on site: inside the walls of Taliesin…. I belong here… 100515
