David's ashes have a spot in a south facing window with a plethora of sun overlooking the change from aspen glowing color to winter's edgy white
The surface had really filled up with treasures and momentos so I recently started over with fall colors and autumn's essence.
The notable thing about this altar is David passing so relatively soon after his parents, means the window has cradled three La Chapelle altars for ashes in less than 3 years....
the other remarkable fact is that there are two unexplainably and miraculously long lasting orchids defying the laws of physics and gradual deterioration. It's unexplainable... except that the "energy" near the ashes is keeping them going.
The blue vase holds dry remnants of the ever-revolving cast of flowers to grace this cabin since David's passing, but the orchids have held the test of time, ... not just this last month, but since July 21st time... as we repeatedly saved and carried over those two little magenta smiley-faces full of released prana .... amazing
