steelroots

Took a break from packing and uprooting all that is with a brief walk through the Morton Arboretum this afternoon.

Came across Steve Tobin's Steelroots installation -- the best thing the Morton has installed in an awfully long while. Actual and abstracted root structures executed in steel anchor into the landscape.

Soothing somehow, and strong. Deep roots surfaced; reminders of why they matter anyway.

Recommend it. Both the rooting and the walk.

Now: Back to packing.
