Interlude

The rites of spring brought to campus the creation and consecration of a Living Mandala near Cannon Chapel: a very meaningful experience for all of us involved in the germ of the idea as well as its flowering into being.  Close to the physical, geographic, and historic center of campus, this planting provides a place for reflection and meditation, practices needed now more than ever in a noisy universe and busy university.














We celebrated, as well, the beauty of spring with our annual Easter Brunch.  Given our migratory status, we had no homeplace for the festivities. Instead, Lullwater served as our backyard--and a very fitting and natural place to picnic while enjoying the pleasures of the season and the revelry of friendship.

There have been many journeys around and within our lives over the past few months. Soon we will move to our new home near downtown Decatur. As pleased as we are about that new place and time in our lives, we will always remember with gratitude this interlude in our little apartment on the edge of Lullwater Park.
