Bell Rock


Well, now that the snow is gone. I thought I would talk about the vortexes of Sedona . The next place I stopped was Bell Rock. Now you couldn't get to close to this massive piece of red rock.

As I stood there, looking at Bell Rock, I could sense energy in the air, in the ground. I am not sure if this came from the rock or was just energy coming from all over. I only know that as I was quiet & still, I felt a peacefulness come over me, the soul ,mind,& spirit felt so much at peace.

I know there are some people more sensitive to energy flow than others. The energy in Sedona,

I could feel the chakras of the body starting to get more in balance as I stayed so quiet like looking at this wonderful Bell Rock. I only know that I will go back to Sedona, 1 day was not enough to explore the area. I know that I felt at peace within my being, so I will once more go to Sedona, to explore this wonderful area & maybe feel the energy from the Mother Earth once more.

this is what we got this morning


Well, it is May 13 & we had about 4 inches of white stuff on the ground this morning! I was so surprised when I got up this morning & saw all the white heavy snow sticking to the trees. The snow is gone now, only lasted a few hours before the sun melted it all again. A picture says 1000 words in this case.
this is front of the dorm , the tree was so heavy with snow it
was leaning almost touching the sidewalk.

vortexes of energy


On Saturday I drove into Sedona to see the red rocks & visit a few energy spots that are in that area. I went down 89A with was a fun road to drive on, the switch backs down into the "valley"from oak canyon were at times pretty scary! I stayed in 2nd gear all the way down!

Once I was off the switchbacks, the road followed oak creek, & here was my first sight of this area. I felt like I was back in Vermont ,as I drove the creek road. it looked so different than the high desert I have come to know in Arizona. Here is a picture I took of this wonderful blabbing brook. It was so green, that spring green, kelly green ,the water clear, that if there was a fish swimming you would be able to see it. I sat here for awhile just listening to the water babble on as it moved over the smooth rocks.
So for me this was the first place I felt the " mother earths energy",peaceful, calming, healing water. Water seems to be the place I go first, Here at the waters edge you can let go of your troubles, just by letting them float away. The trees all around offer protection & their healing energies. Green is the color for healing, so I stayed here awhile to feel the healing energy that was all around me.

Spirit of the River

Well, since you can't read my first poem on the photo I submitted, I thought my first blog would be my poem. The photo is of Great Falls in AZ. It has a nickname of " Chocolate Falls" This great falls only runs during March & April, I was so glad to be able to see this place. It is also taller than Niagara Falls in New York State. So here is my first poem ;


Oh, Spirit of the River,
I hear your roar
As the waters come crashing
Over the falls.
The mists & turmoil below
I see a rainbow all-aglow!
Slowly your waters calm,
You become the gentle river,
Twisting & turning,snake-like
Through the canyon of time.
I feel the peace with these canyon walls,
That now hold you as you flow thru time.
May I learn the gentleness I See
& I hope to find the Peace within me.
May my Heart be healed ,so I can Feel
& I hope my Soul will be set free.
In this canyon of time, may I find new Eyes to see
All the Spirits that are around me.
As I find my Way,may I learn to stop & enjoy
The places I see.
No more rat race for me,
& Wondering what is around the next corner to see.
Here I stand in this canyon ,made by the River Spirit
Who has lost tract of time.
For he has been here since time began.

Here the River flows & May i find Rainbows
Wherever I go.
