Noah's Ark

I had made this Noah's Ark wall hanging quite sometime back. It comprises of 8 - 4 1/4" tile painted & fired separately and then grouted together. I couldn't find a ready made frame for it so I made my own.
I have always enjoy the story of Noah's Ark especially children's pictorial books with Noah's story in them. I just find it amazing about the ark itself and how the Lord has miraculously directed the animals to show up in pairs to enter the ark.
When I was shopping in New York few years ago, I met a really nice store owner who chatted away with me and I still don't remember how the 'Ark' conversation came about but he started telling me that he was actually with a exploration team that was waiting upon Iran for their visa and permit to hike the mountains there hoping to find the 'Ark'. He said there have been sigthings of the ark and his team couldn't wait to go. This guy was at least in his 50's. In my heart, I wished I could have gone with them but............I have not kept in contact with him but maybe one day when I go back to New York, I will visit his store again.
..... here's 'The first Noel'........
