From Gladys We: “These are from this gorgeous afternoon — so many people on that walk, and so many of them decided to go down 
and make art for themselves, including my 6-year-old. It was a highlight of my Olympic experience!
“I wonder if this rock-stacking thing is a uniquely Vancouver art form? That fellow who does them around Stanley Park is amazing, but these squarish concrete pieces are definitely more accessible to amateurs than his gorgeous roundish rocks.”
I left an inukshuk on my trip to Yellowknife. There are quite a few up there, of course, seeing as the arctic is where it comes from, used as a marker for travelers, and is deeply rooted in the northern culture, appearing even on the flag of Nunavut.
I do like the variety of those pieces, though.
