Now for the rest of the story. I will be posting a more detailed one on my private page for a few people. (Those people probably know who they are already) Not to be rude but there are certain things at this time that have to remain private. This version is being done out of respect to the family. So don’t feel slighted that I am not able to share. I would like to though.
I met “Mudslide” while walking down the lane way to get to a memorial site of a wonderful person who would have turned 25 that day, but was killed in a motor-vehicle accident last year. His parents had a 16 foot Inukshuk erected on their property as a place to go to honor and remember him. They surrounded it in large stones to sit on and a garden will be planted this summer. I know he would have loved it. (I know he does love it!) He was such a gifted person. So full of life. The kind of person you meet and like instantly. I know he had a brilliant career ahead of him. I wish I could share more about him with you.
If you would like to see 2 photo’s of the Inukshuk you can go to my photo blog here.
RIP ((((You)))) are missed.

I love the little pony. I found this interesting explanation of an Inukshuk :
” The Inukshuk are a symbol of the human spirit. They recognize our ability to succeed with others, where alone we would fail. Remind us of our need to belong to something greater than ourselves. Prompt us to reconnect with our individual responsibility to invest our efforts today so we may all have a better tomorrow. Ask us to heed the knowledge of our inner knowingness, hear the voice of our intuition and move to the harmonious music in our heart and spirit. Inukshuk convey the importance of personal contribution and reinforce our ability to commit to common goals. They implore us to share the fruits of our learning, our wisdom with one another.
The Inukshuk is a reminder for all of us that our efforts towards the common good of our earth community are appreciated. It is an enduring symbol that invites us to speak with one another on a higher level, from our hearts and spirit, about what really matters in life. ”
I had no idea what the word meant. I find it all so interesting. What a great thing to do to remember their child. I can’t even imagine how they must feel losing their son. What a monument to his short life.

Joan - Thank you for your input! That was a great comment. They are so common around this area that I just assumed everyone knew about them.
