Inspired by Gary and Designanator

Many of you know that my wife is a stained glass artist among many other talents (if you're thinking not least of all patience, you might be on to something). Gary posted his Hares of Easter here which was followed by designanator's "Inspired by Gary" post here. By way of wishing the OS community a happy Easter, I thought I'd add to the aforementioned with this south facing critter and a link I hope you find inspirational.

 My sister sent me to this video of the annual Nancy Hanks Lecture on Arts and Public Policy, which she had the great fortune to attend, and which is as close to the theme of rebirth as I know how to share with you all.  If it stutters for lack of bandwidth, let it get ahead by pausing for a few minutes. (Let the download progress bar get ahead of the position marker.) You don't want the herky-jerkies on this one.

This year's guest was Wynton Marsalis and members of the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra. I recommend turning off all distractions for a while and selecting the full screen option when viewing. I hope it strikes as much of a chord with you as it did me.

HAPPY EASTER!

Stacey, I am thrilled that Gary's inspiration for me turned into one for you, too! Your wife's stained glass piece is a beautiful addition to this display of bunnies. I also loaded the Wynton Marsalis video and will watch that all the way through this evening. I did a preview and it looked like a great combination of his performing musically as well as his thoughts. Thanks for posting that for all of us as I know I would not have been aware of it otherwise. Happy Easter!
Beautiful. And a really well composed photo, as well.
Wynton is a genius and his contribution to the art of jazz is as much as just about anyone ever. He's an amazing talent, along with all the Lincoln Center Orchestra. Rated
Love the bunny in the stained glass window and the wonderful presentation of history and music by Wynton Marsalis was just wonderful.
What a fitting Easter gift. Thanks very much!
Stacey, thank you for the nod and the chance to see your wife's lovely piece (beautiful!). Have the Happiest of Easters for you and your family.....
