This two-piece diptych mural of Alhambra Creek by Frogard Butler, based on the map design by Libby Corliss, will be the background for hundreds of children’s artwork. Can’t you just imagine it filled with beavers, birds and butterflies? I told Fro that its beauty needed only one more thing to start everything off: Mom beaver who was of course the beginning of everything. Paint, brushes, smocks and guidance provided. This will be a fantastic project that continues all day. Save a little energy for you and your child’s creation.
The counter on this blog post tells me that this is the 996th post written on this home page, meaning that this thursday will likely be the 1000th column written. That’s a lot of posts about beavers. The first 25 or so were written by Bruce the original designer of the sight. Another 25 were written by others. And the remaining 950 have been the work of yours truly, a fairly weird but still prodigious accomplishment. 1 a morning 365 days a year for three years. Its something to think about.
Has this been the most beaver articles ever written on the web? I think so! There certainly isn’t a facet of beavers or beaver lore that you can look up without finding www.martinezbeavers.org/wordpress on at least the third google page. Ditto for photos. It is strange how the numbers worked out so closely timed to the festival. Divine beaver providence I guess.
