Aeris Amare

Last month marked the official anniversary of Liz and my iron-clad bonds of matrimony.  Or, in this case (being year 7), copper, according to the traditional anniversary gift theme.

Also known as a rooster, of course.  To fit the country theme of the below garden, or something.  Okay, so it’s just kinda cool to have a weathervane and I hoped she’d like it.

She did.  Here’s me testing it’s accuracy with a sole digit raised aloft to the heavens–or valiantly proclaiming something (“Aeris Amare!”):
