Dear Friends and Family,
We are sending you our Christmas greetings from Ann Arbor, MI, USA with a video e-card, which we posted on Youtube, here. The text and photo appear below. Best wishes for a Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday,
Ed & Shirley
Eclipse
This
day of omens
brought out everyone to the fields, squares and beaches, to where the horizon and its sky filled our eyes like panorama photos; we were ready to see with our magic glasses and cardboard contraptions, even colanders-- anything with a narrowing opening, a blocking of all that would intrude on our retinas, to a singular vision, this silhouette of one orb crossing another-- all that we do to see something we understand comes only once or twice across our years and we are ready, with awe and a sense
that
this time is one to pay more attention
than
any other.
