To me, nothing is more southing and hypnotic than the sounds of the frogs and crickets and Waterfalls at night. It’s like having the Tennessee River in my backyard 😊

I hope these gentle sounds bring you to a place of Zen.

 

Have a great Monday!

Good morning 😊 This is one of my oldest Waterfalls at Carters Nursery. The moss and old driftwood stump really naturalize this Waterfall, and the sound will almost hypnotize you if you sit down and listen. It’s all about the Zen like atmosphere that it helps to create. I hope it adds a bit o’ Zen to your day…

Happy Pondering 🤔

Monday Morning Moment of Zen has gotten to be a tradition! There’s no better way to calm the mind & spirit than a flowing stream or a waterfall. This short video of a simple Pondless stream & Waterfalls says it all – beautiful, organic & natural! A pleasure to sit by in the morning or evening. The perfect way to set the stage for today 😊 Have a Great Day!

Happy Pondering 🤔

What a beautiful morning! The tide is going out leaving these shallow tidal pools, warm & full of life… small crabs, minnows & lots of sea shells are left behind. Not to mention the Herons…

This Heron makes a living stealing bait 😊

 

The sound and sight of the Gulf is my offering for today’s Moment of Zen.

Happy Pondering 🤔

I got out in the gardens a little bit yesterday. It was such a beautiful day! Warm-ish and sunny, it strangely felt like a breezy Spring day… The soil is so soft from all the rain & warm temps & the robins and other birds were pulling worms 🐛 out of the ground and singing.

The birds were out in force feasting on seeds, berries & worms 🐛

I took this short video from above one of my Waterfalls looking down the stream as it flows away.

 

“I heard a bird sing
In the dark of December
A magical thing
And sweet to remember.”
“We are nearer to Spring
Than we were in September,
I heard a bird sing
In the dark of December.”

Have a a great day!

We had a great day Saturday at the Fall Fest! We kept the fire pit 🔥 going until well after the festivities were over for our own enjoyment 😊 I went back out late to make sure the fire was out & stirred the coals up good & the glowing coals just mesmerized me… No telling what you might see in those glowing coals.:. The fire pit sits right by the pond so you can really hear the waterfalls too. So relaxing, so… Zen

Have a great day!

A gentle, twisting stream with a couple of nice Waterfalls greats you at this homes entrance. The sound is so nice 😊 I hope it lends a little Zen to your morning too …
