Possibly a Phallic Object?

I thought this was very cute and a great tribute to dear Mr. Lovecraft.

I haven't really walked or jogged for enjoyment or exercise in about three weeks. With all the craziness going on at the old apartment and preparing for the move, I just wasn't in the mood to do much of anything else. With everything unpacked in the new apartment, I decided it was about time I got back into the swing of things this afternoon. Ferguson and I walked up to the beautiful park by the foothills. It's almost a mile away, which is the perfect length for a walk to and back in the evenings after dinner.

I took the High Desert trails up to the park and noticed an odd (and huge) metal sculpture sitting in the middle of the brush and cacti. I had my cell phone with me, so I took a picture.





It looks like I pasted that into the picture, but I really didn't. I have no idea what it is or is supposed to represent. Anyone want to hazard a guess? Maybe it is just intended to look neat.

I still have this low-level hum of anxiety running through me every minute of the day. Everything is fine now. I have no reason to be anxious or worried or nervous. Whenever this happens, I'm always concerned the anxiety will take hold of me like it did a few years ago and completely wreck my mental health for several months. I hate sitting on the verge of a panic attack over worrying about stupid things.

Oh, and work tomorrow. My inbox is probably overflowing. So crappy. Boo.

Very cool picture. Anxiety really sucks, but you know there are lots of ways to deal with. Getting back to walking will probably do you a world of good!

i just looked it up for the heck of it, to see if there were anything written about it...so, maybe its one of the art scultptures this articles talks about?

i guess you caught my curiosity...another article says there is a steel sundial at the Third Mesa Overlook and some more art scattered along the trail. So, maybe this is the sundial? Modern looking or something...who knows. lol..you got me interested.

I figured it out! I posted about it again in this entry (http://anogete.livejournal.com/254588.html). It's called Shrine to the Bear.
