In June I had the chance to visit a church that had this wonderful meditation area behind it.\u00a0 Well, actually, it was two meditation areas, one with a pond and the other with a little stream and waterfall.\u00a0 I had taken my camera with me just in case I saw some neat cloud formations because we had several storms in the area.\u00a0 I was hoping for a rainbow, but that never materialized.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The pond area also had a nice pathway with stone benches, but the focus – and there was actually two – was the stone cross and the water fountain.\u00a0 Before crossing over the road to meditate on that side, I stood on the bridge and took some photos of the water fountain because it was very breezy that evening and the wind was producing a spray off the fountain.\u00a0 I got a number of really nice “spray” photos, but I got one that I really liked.\u00a0 I guess it would depend on your perspective, but I think the image in the spray looks like an angel praying.\u00a0 <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

I hope to get back there someday, maybe in late Fall, and get some more photos.\u00a0 This place is very calming, relaxing.\u00a0 I am glad I was told about this area because I hadn’t known it was there.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
