Missed getting this online early enough. However it reminded me of the deep and perplexing work that Ms. Proulx has accomplished. So let’s get some extra information below. I checked out some biographical information and found there are still more books by Aniie Proulx for me to read! Thus I am posting a second blog on her works. I was startled not to find more yourube videos about her.

Some how haven’t read her books yet? The psychological character development and excellent regional settings creates a profound narrative.

Annie Proulx at UNM Summer Sunset Series

Sixty Water Weaving Women at La Orilla Canal
This ritual performance place the afternoon of the Summer Solstice is intended to express and encourage gratitude and awareness of the water source that flows through the city - a constant presence to a life force that is rarely noticed. The performance will take place on the west side of the canal. Inspired by the tradition of women as water bearers, each woman carried her own pitcher in the ritual as a symbol of her personal commitment to guard and conserve this precious resource. The combined waters carried by these 60 women represent the collective impact of their individual commitment.
Special Event Sunday, June 21, 2:30pm Albuquerque Open Space, near the Visitor Center
