The Flight of the Saltire

[BroosterB1]

While the future of the wee ship is being decided here are just a few snaps that I had in my phone that I figured out how to up load to Photobucket.

Here the air ship is helping out at a wedding cermony in the Jemez Moutains. The "vestments" here are a sage smudg for a four winds blessing.




Later that same day in Chimayo, we stop for refreshments. The Prickly Pear Lemonaide was fantasic.

Where is it headed next?

I don't post in this thread often, but I too vote to send the Saltire out on another mission. I posted a while ago that I would be willing to host the ship on a stop in my area, not that we have all that much to see.

Since the first mission took two years, then maybe the next one will take 4 years. To quote Buzz Lightyear: "To infinity and beyond".

I would imagine that it is on it's way to or has arrived at Jamie's. The wee airship has as standing orders to be there for Burns Night every year.

The Saltire represents the old ruling parties. With the new forum owner and a new way of doing business in this corner of the cyberspace, the forum needs a new symbol and new vehicle.

Let the Saltire be retired.

I'm inclined to think the Saltire represents the membership. It's been around the world and met many of us. Sad to think that politics and personalities should get in the way of it's continued journeys.

Has it been to the Antipodes yet? Or Africa?

What other object do we know of that has travelled so far to bring so many different people closer together.

A stroke of genius by Jamie if you ask me...

It shouldn't be about where it came from. It should be about where it's going next.

Forward thinking, that's the key!
