How do you choose one favorite place? I have so many “favorite spots.” Some of those places I’ve only visited once, maybe twice, fell in love with them, but have not had to opportunity to return. There are other places I love and return to them as often as I can
As much as I love to travel, when I saw the weekly photo challenge for a “Favorite Place,” my heart turned close to home. This lovely pond is about a half mile from our home where my husband and I walk our sweet Bear almost everyday, no matter what the weather.
When we visit, we often see turtles basking in the sun and it is also a favorite spot for ducks, egrets and we recently saw a blue heron. There are some huge coi that we feed tortillas and they will come to the surface so you see how big the are.
It’s a favorite place for photographers, and it’s a lovely spot for photo ops to mark those special occasions in life!
But the best part of all is it’s the perfect sanctuary to escape the stress that comes in our busy world. It’s peaceful and serene, a great place to meditate, read a book, or simply enjoy the peaceful ambiance.
Hope you’ve enjoyed this walk around my favorite place. Blessings to all. – Gerri
