This beautiful image (the logo for this site) was created by Eli.  It was for a tattoo he hoped to get at some future time.

He explained to me that it was a stylized representation of Seneca Rocks, viewed by starlight.  We visited Seneca together several times and camped at the National Forest campground.  On a clear light the stars shine brightly over the iconic cliffs where we used to climb together.

I have written elsewhere about out first trip to Seneca. We returned several times over the years and had more than one adventure.

For me, Seneca has always felt like a center of vital energy – of inspiration to reach for the stars.  Perhaps Eli’s choice of this image signified that the place, or the time we spent together there, had a similar meaning for him.

I don’t know.  But I do know that his short life was an inspiration to many other people.  I hope our logo may signify that to you too.
