Wood Spirit
This is a picture of a knot in a dinette table we have. The
face (or wood spirit) of a young girl jumps out at me. The two
dark dots in the center form the eyes. |

Simply Eloquent |
When USS Honolulu surfaced near the North Pole she
apparently freed an Ice Sprit. I like looking for human forms in

I pity these poor USS PHILADELPHIA sailors mooring at New London, CT |
