The Water Dish

The Water Dish and Giving Tuesday

I looked out my kitchen window and saw a squirrel drinking from a large

water dish I keep filled outside - the dish reads Tempus Fugit around the edge with Roman numerals. A boat is part of it in the center. The sail throws a shadow and is a kind of clock. My cat drinks from it, and often birds play in it. Today, Thanksgiving, I am thankful for this dish that nourishes my outside world, and I am thankful for our company, that nourishes those who drink or play its offerings. Whether you are a student or audience member or dancer, thank you for participating and being part of that world.

Giving Tuesday is coming up and is part of our year-end fund drive. Click on the pictures, and each will take you to a web page with a matching picture somewhere on it that tells you a bit more about our last year (#35) and the one coming up (#36). Please contribute to our programs.
