He supposably ran it onto a sand bar trying to get into the inner banks, and fled with the loot, splitting up his gang. He was trying to hide after his big blockading of Charlestown SC where he took over ships, money and held hostage until he was given "medicine" for his troops...<br /><br /><br />Lots of lore there.<br />.<br /><br />and, We can be very certain, Modigliani (if born a girl) would NOT be a Brownie or a girlscout. :)mansuetudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03805383049085040581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2635895079074963527.post-81950559388224543492010-05-26T05:55:24.202-04:002010-05-26T05:55:24.202-04:00mm..

I have been so soothed by this fact. This year feels like its going too fast, hazy.<br /><br />i am going on a little silence; but i will be around and about, "peeking".<br /><br />Someone just stole a Modigliani in France... i bumped into "M" from reading a Yiddish poet who wrote about Rembrandt's image that looks like a side of beef, which reminded me of another artist which reminded me of Modigliani. His faces made me think of you, for sure.<br /><br />You would understand if i said, that great old ship is really a cluster of great old trees that carried some men's dreams!<br /><br />xoblessing.mansuetudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03805383049085040581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2635895079074963527.post-64582114254224717212010-05-25T15:12:25.936-04:002010-05-25T15:12:25.936-04:00here in northeastern california summer seems far a...here in northeastern california summer seems far away. the trees have barely begun to leaf out. it's cold. we had another snowstorm last weekend... but, my dear m., for you summer is almost here, and off you go (or stay...)<br /><br />the next art book i get will be about modigliani. he's been popping up everywhere.<br /><br />as robyn said, this post thrills me. the photos, the words, everything. you have such a way...<br /><br />travel safely beautiful one. breath and exoblessings abound...<br /><br />XOlynne hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00682812765012431260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2635895079074963527.post-61129454081619699862010-05-25T12:53:01.642-04:002010-05-25T12:53:01.642-04:00I've been learning alot Robyn.

Boats have been stranded out along those straights up and down the coast, often. <br /><br />Even today boaters are warned to know the area. <br /><br />Because its shallow, the tides and the underwater sea currents move the sand levels and lots of old buried stuff in the strata below gets suddenly unearthed or moved around... I have already found some (to me) fascinating stuff walking the beach, and am trying to figure out its "myserious" background. Food for imagination for sure.<br /><br />Thanda.<br /><br />.<br />Hi La Dolce. Thank you for the virtual support. Some things seem to happen in "waves" and yes, we are all connected, half invisibly i think.<br /><br />Blessings to you, both.mansuetudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03805383049085040581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2635895079074963527.post-84490331316653818362010-05-25T10:33:22.732-04:002010-05-25T10:33:22.732-04:00was so happy to see a post from YOU!!
