kings park psychiatric center – 3

This is the third and last post from a visit to the Kings Park Psychiatric Center with my brother on a recent trip back to New York. While walking the grounds we came upon this wall that appeared to be the remains of some kind of outdoor gathering place. (?)

The textures were fascinating here. And those trees! Just incredible how they found life, water and sustenance through the brick and stone.

On the left side was a small storage room (?) guarded by a fallen tree that we were hoping was the opening of a tunnel.

This was inside that room.

Thanks for stopping by.

Spent a couple of days this past week hiking around Devil’s Lake, WI, with my colleagues at Minooka Bible Church. We enjoyed the beauty of autumn colors, did some dreaming and planning for our ministry year, and had lots of fun! This was taken with my iPad.

The Falls vs Chris

This is the last image from a hiking trip that I took with my son to Matthiessen Park. At first I told him to not climb up to the falls... then I followed him!
