One item from my long and ambitious creative list can finally be crossed out.
Robert Smithson's The Spiral Jetty, 1970
Great Salt Lake, Utah
My travel companion and I drove a long way, past cows grazing along the roads, past several wrong turns, miles down a dirt road then finally hiking several miles to see the great Spiral Jetty.
For many people the jetty may be a pilgrimage. Slowly walking down the jetty as it jutted straight out then curled inward I was reminded of meditation, turning consciousness inward in order to know thy self.
