That's a great picture. The idea of draping the trilithons with banners or tapestries is intriguing. thesweetcheat Posted by thesweetcheat

Juamei, I don''t know anything about the book. I stumbled on the pic here: http://www.voicesfromthedawn.com/stonehenge/ where there are a couple of other oddities (including the page itself). ryaner Posted by ryaner
