That a gem of presentation Evan !

And it had to be Venice
Mom side of family is from that area
I’ve told this story many times on RTH
It what lead me into

Scuotere il cuore

Marble & Venice is in my blood

This is one version I wrote to my first puppy love
We haven't seen or spoken to each other
in over 40 years.

She contacted my brother through Facebook
& that led to a out of the blue email to me.

Vicki !

All my life I been looking for a worthy partner to accompany me on a search, a quest.
Ya see… my great Uncle Umberto owned a marble company in Chicago. Early 1900’s

He made this fabulous wall size marble mosaic picture of

‘Beauty & the Beast.’

I’ve only seen a black & white photo of it.
That was in my Moms possession.

(Unfortunately, for the last 20 years that photo as been unaccounted for.
Perhaps, it will show up now that we will have go through things).
Anyway the lore is that the picture was donated to a Venice Museum.

I have done some cursory research trying to discover which museum.
To no avail. That's fine.

I propose that you & I
trapes the Venice museum scene
in search of the lost marble mosaic –

Beauty & the Beast.

We may fail in our quest!

Yet I think it would enlightening experience, mostly

Ah,,, these are the things
dream are made of, Vicki

The fact are all true..
Who knows?
Dreams
can come true …

The first thing I thought of was a scene from The Lion King.

Sweet cab,
And shape!
You were scaring me when you held it up
Above concrete and rocks.
Those little buggers are slippery

mohs One thing I learn from you,
You know how to tell the story, put the meaning into the scene. Not just grinding pretties. You have someone in mind as you grind, Venice is more than a pretty picture, thanks Ed.

Boy oh boy, Evan, that is a gorgeous Montana! Kudos to you, sir. (drooling)

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."
