Anchored in the setting sun
Too abstract to see.

The Vantage Bridge is in western Washington and carries Interstate 90 across the Columbia River,
near Vantage and George, Washington. This section of the river is named Wanapum Lake, the reservoir
formed by Wanapum Dam. The bridge separates the Ginkgo Petrified Forest and Wanapum
Recreational Area State Park on the western bank of the Columbia.
Grandfather Cuts Loose the Ponies (also known as the Wild Horse Monument) is a public art sculpture created
by David Govedare in 1989–1990 and situated near Vantage, Washington. It consists of 15 life-size steel horses
which appear to be galloping across a ridge above the Columbia River.

“Be patient toward all that
is unsolved in your heart
and try to love the questions themselves,
like locked rooms and like books that
are now written in a very foreign tongue.
Do not now seek the answers,
which cannot be given you because
you would not be able to live them.
And the point is,
to live everything.
Live the questions now.
Perhaps you will then gradually,
without noticing it,
live along some distant day
into the answer.”
— Rainer Maria Rilke
(from Tom Turner’s book of quotes and notes)
