this is going to be my new catchphrase for when i need to remind myself to stop buying things. running the words “don’t be like the griffin” through my head will probably have a better effect than just saying “you don’t need that.” at least for me it will. anything involving mythological creatures will probably work for me.

this was taken at the children’s fountain in batelle riverfront park. we explored the park a little on friday morning and i’m already envisioning picnics and pictures in warmish spring days. the park is filled with statues of beings that tell the local lore of pickaweekee: a myth of discovery. we shall return again to learn more another day.
