Grand Rapids, MI USA

Waiting outside the GRPM for some friends, I enjoyed looking at the sleek space shuttle from the Apollo program and the giant bell from…something? We were meeting for an afternoon walk along the Grand River (water levels are pretty high right now). As the first to arrive I had a relaxing time just watching people and checking out the world around me.

There it was, hanging on a tree branch at eye level…a quilted heart!

At first I assumed it was part of some art thing…we have a LOT of those around here, but on closer inspection I saw the tag and checked out the website. What a cool community idea. It really helped me feel like I was part of some bigger thing, and that made my day…and my friends jealous. There are several folks looking for quilted hearts now!
