The whale just about emerged from the depths and swam above water, giving observers a few moments to glimpse the shy mass of hulking beauty. Then dove back down with that shrill cry only those like him could understand. Living a serene life underwater, the creature takes with him the mysteries of the depths.

Art we say is in the eye of the beholder. It is described as an expression of one’s creativity and imagination embodied in a physical form for various interpretations or abstract manner as in a practice of some sort. Lifted from the Latin word “artis” it usually connotes skills and crafts. The word itself has meaning beyond simple description. It is sometimes contained or broad in scope, sometimes simple and yet very complicated. Lores on the other hand are seen to be accumulated knowledge over spans of time on certain subjects or matters, or traditional beliefs.
COMPARING THE MARKS - The marks may be the same but sometimes they do have different interpretations of it.

The topography of Kapangan, Benguet is best suited for agriculture. With a variation of warm climate during daytime and cool to cold in the evenings, the vegetation has grown lush and beautiful. As is the assortment of natural architecture is one to boast about. The area has its share of mountains and hills, flatlands and slopes and a lot of natural water sources ranging from springs to small creeks. The biggest body of water in the area though is the Amburayan River which traces its source from the watersheds of Mountain Province.
The nursery is well on its way producing seedlings for planting. Most of the seedlings are either fruit-bearing or the water retaining kinds.

Entering Camp John Hay, I could not help but stare at the many structures cropping up around the area. Nostalgia crept up like a warm hand across my shoulders, having grown up and walked around Camp John Hay as a child. Those days were a dazzling blurr of sunshines and bursting flowers and green lawns and pine trees. I remember most the trees, how we trod around them and lie down on the ground during sunsets watching the sun creep among the spaces between them. Then there’s the commissary and the exchange center, at the back is that hanging bridge every teenager wants to try. Growing older, Halfway House was a hangout. We skate awhile and go look up the beefy men downstairs at the gym, then off in a friend’s skateboard. The 19th Tee Restaurant was a place I run to when the world does not treat me right, get me a coke and read my pocketbooks to while away the hours, sometimes a friend comes by and keeps me company. Roaming around would usually lead us to Scout Hill where the ice cream house always have a profusion of my favourite Cherry-Vanilla. Then off to my sanctuary at the John Hay Library. So much has changed..

The fresh, green fields are slowly coming to life wherever one goes in the agricultural areas. After the daunting months of drought the El Niño phenomenon brought, the farmers are happy again that the rains finally fell on the parched lands. Better late than never, they say amidst the growing anticipation of cropping the fields. The lands that the drought left has grown barren for awhile, with luck and constant rains they will regain fertility and bear the grains of life again.
The original name of the Municipality of Lagawe in Ifugao is Burnay. It was changed to Lagawe by virtue of Republic Act. No. 3380
