nIndecided to call today Stone Bridge Day, because it is thenanniversary of an amazing artist named MichaelnGrab creating a beautiful stone bridge.
n
n
n
n
n
n
n
n
n
nMichaelnGrab isn’t mostly a bridge builder. Mostly, he is fellow who playsnwith gravity!
n
n
n
nAsna matter of fact, his website is called Gravity Glue.
n
n
n
nGrabnis a master balancer, and when I say “balancer”…
n
n
n
 |
| …I mean he’s crazy good at balancing rocks! |
n
n
n
n
n
n
n
n
n
n
n
n
nAndnwhen I say “master”…
n
n
n
 |
| …I mean an insane amount of mastery – that looks more like magic! |

Grab’snartwork takes an enormous amount of concentration, dedication, maybeneven meditation! He has to be patient, and he has to have a highntolerance for being cold, maybe even cold-and-wet (which is a muchnharder kind of cold for most of us).
