      Runes have always fascinated and interested me. There are different sets of runes too. There really isn’t any true literal translation of one rune meaning one letter. So translation depends on which set of runes has been used and how they affect each other. Then that goes back to who made the original stone because if it’s modern it can easily end up being a hodge podge of the different sets. A lot of times a large stone like that is just inscribed with random runes so it  “looks good” or used as a way to teach runes. If you like Norse mythology, that is where the Elder runes originated. Odin is the God that brought them to us and gave meaning to them.

        The runes I know are Nordic and are called Elder Futhark. There are 24 in the alphabet. I have studied runes but I’m not sure if I have any books on outright literal translation for each rune. A lot of the runes are given a general meaning.  Which is then affected by the runes closest to them.

        I’m not sure if I could figure out a literal translation,  but given some time,  I’d be willing to see what I could come up with.

              You are doing a fantastic job Bodine. I think Flash will be beautiful as a hippocampus. And I know the extra skill it takes to match from a photo. I am looking forward to seeing him done.

                Bodine, Thank you, Happy New Year to you and yours!

                I have been telling myself for over 25 years that we’d get some moisture. lol.  I have lived here my entire life (other than 4 years I had to be down in Montana a few years ago) and I know for a fact we used to get a lot more rain and snow than we have the last 25 years.  Heck it didnt even rain here hard enough for the drops to actually hit the ground this last summer. Was frustrating to see the storms come in, be able to feel the moisture in the air, but then see it evaporate before anything hit the ground. I am really hoping that we get some form of moisture soon or the fires will be bad again this year. Last time anything actually even got the ground damp here was Febuary 2017. And I know that even 60 miles can make a huge difference  as there are surrounding towns that have gotten some moisture. My husband drives over the mountain passes here a lot and was saying that if the ski resorts weren’t making artificial snow, they would still be closed this season. As your title says.. its Mad, mad, mad weather!

                    I’m STILL waiting for winter here in Western Colorado. Temps  are finally down to highs of 45 during the day and dropping to below freezing at night but no snow here yet. Christmas morning the moutains to the east of me got a bit of snow but its so dry here the ground is getting 15-20 foot long cracks that are a minimum of 14 inches deep. But I did get a picture Christmas morning of the sun coming up over the mountains. The white on the ground in the foreground is akali not snow.

                          She is beautiful! I think she turned out great!

                          And yes I’ve had eyes seem to sit at different depths on a few sculpts. Most  noticeable for me recently was the PYO Oriental Dragon. But I’ve had that issue with the hipp  too.

                            Alexandrite is gorgoues. That happens to be my favorite gemstone as well. Hannah did a fantastic job on him and I love the swirls on his horns too.

                            Everyone did such a great job on their swaps. I always love seeing all the talent that goes into them!
