On a day like today, entrenched in a massive heat wave, one needs to get out early to enjoy God’s beautiful day.  I saw this little fellow enjoying one of Sister Mary Edward’s beautiful flowers….

…and our sweet dog Maggie hanging out by the gazebo…probably looking for squirrels.

Then we can take a rest near the pond….

Take a stroll down this path, into the woods….

Where I’ll find this beautiful grotto tucked away under the trees. It’s a very special place for prayer and contemplation.

Afterward, we can take advantage of one of the many paths cut through the fields, which take us to a variety of places that offer quiet solitude and the simple enjoyment of being outdoors.

There is an abundance of nature found on these walks. Including gorgeous flora like these sweet little pink flowers. How I wish we had Smell-O-Vision so you could fully appreciate them!
