I'm here because it's a place where I want to be.

What do I do with my life - still pondering that, keep exploring the possibilities I suppose...

I do have another more personal moblog Vivupclose

Take a look at my daughter Beth's website...

food for thought...

Everyone, in some small sacred sanctuary of the self, is nuts. -Leo Rosten, author (1908-1997)

We think caged birds sing, when indeed they cry. -John Webster, playwright (c. 1580-1634)

There are two kinds of light -- the glow that illuminates, and the glare that obscures. -James Thurber, writer and cartoonist (1894-1961)

The artist brings something into the world that didn't exist before, and he does it without destroying something else. -John Updike, writer (1932-2009)

Some people become so expert at reading between the lines they don't read the lines. -Margaret Millar, novelist (1915-1994)

There may be times when we are powerless to prevent injustice, but there must never be a time when we fail to protest. -Elie Wiesel, writer, Nobel laureate (b. 1928)

Simon is Janet and Phil's son
There were lots of pictures and I love them but there were reflections on them so I just managed this one.

or don't throw it, if you can use it - no concrete went to waste in Phil's constructions!

This is to the left of the gate if you entered that way. Full of surprises.

the rill runs from a small pond under the retreat, in front of what looks like a delightful little building but is just a facade - I did say folly didn't I? :)

all the different areas are made with reclaimed materials and most have a story - think he said the bricks were from a demolished building on a now departed friend's allotment. Think he and Janet both worked on the mosaic by the door. The rose is the first plant that was put in the garden when they moved in - not sure he didn't say that his father gave it to them.
