Memorial Day Chronicals 2012 - Spirit Winds - Figment Arts Festival - Governor's Island New York Festivities - Trees Of LIfe...Photography and Short Film by Peter G Pereira
It was a Glorius Saturday.
I was Trekking to Governor's Island to met with My Curator Danielle and see the new site for my 'Trees of Life' Sculpture/ Installation for the Figment Arts Festival Show in June.
My fourth year. My Designation Area was new and I looked forward to meeting my Spaces and Trees of Life Subjects and to reflect on this Memorial Day Weekend the Sky and Gleaming Cityline of a New and Revitalized Lower Manhattan.
Those we have lost on 9/11 and those who have given the ultimate sacrifice in the defense both of our Security of Body and Security of Mind and Spirit.

Well That was My Memorial Weekend Saturday Morning

in Defense of Freedom's Ideals
In the Safe Pursuit of Happiness
HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY
