Frog in watercress--Sacramento River Trail
This frog is one of the "Dancing Masks" for the projected folk dances.
I think the Turtle Bay Rainbow Bridge--the "World's Largest Sundial" would be an excellent venue for a yearly series of folk dances--featuring birds, animals and people of the Redding California area.
Since the huge gnoman of the Rainbow Bridge points the absolutely accurate time of the year by the sun--this could be the telling time for the dance series.
A six month-long series of perhaps six annual dances would be good, I think--to begin on December 21--the shortest day of the year--and to end on June 21--the longest day.
This same period is often used by the ancient peoples all over the world for their seasonal dances--and though most of the people in Redding are not the original ancient people of the area--(in terms of anthropological roots they are more usually fairly new transplants)--a series of new folk dances might be enjoyable for them too.
