The Bus Stop, part 6

A busy day at the ol' Bus Stop.

Signage was completed, including a roof sign.
The tin roof was finished and applied.
The distressed asphalt base/parking lot was finished.
The building was attached to the asphalt.
The bus stop was situated in Gailtown.

This is a fun little scenario that could host all sorts of meditation "trips", visualizations, guided imaging.  If you ride busses in daily  living, close your eyes and imagine/experience a ride to Gailtown, or anyplace, really.  If you don't ride a bus, then maybe you're a passenger in a car.

And as always, this kind of leisurely construction is so relaxing.
I find it usually has these stages...
* dreaming up the general idea for a building
*itemizing functions, areas, floor plans
*deciding where to start... materials, methods
*experimenting with actual building 
*the usual progression... exterior to interior... large items to small items...
*deciding when you're finished... no pressure... I still go back and add or perfect previous places.

Engaging the imagination with hand-eye activities is calming and mind-body integrating, and just plain good for ya!


Next, I'm gonna make a bus.  Yes, a BUS.   Well, I'm gonna TRYYY...
