Well now I can cross that one off....

 So you know that set of stairs I was thinking about in a previous post?
Well today was the day to find out where they go. At first I was just waiting to get yelled at for being in the wrong place. I don't know who was going to yell at me but I figured it would happen. From the photo perspective as wall as in real life these stairs look like they lead to nowhere. That I found out is quite the opposite as you will see. I found it the pathway to finding a piece of home. It may not have sounded like it or smelled like it but for a split second it felt like it. Walking a dirt path with pine needles underfoot. Hearing the fluttering of the doves as they fly over. I just felt like it was reminding me that where I am from and where I am are not so very far apart. They blend quite nicely.

 I did come to find out why the path was there. Interspersed with all of the trees, there are vegetable garden plots that are carefully tended to. I don't know who does the work but you can tell it is done with love. After a good ways in I came literally to a decision. Do I continue on the path or take the hint to step back and return the way I came? I mean my Momma didn't raise no fool. She did, however, raise a curious child who just had to go and look around the next corner.

I am really glad I did because I got to see the biggest garden yet and a new special place that I know I can go to when I want to feel a little bit closer to home while I am here in Korea.
Sorry Mom if I made you worry, but I was expected for a dinner this evening anyway and somebody would have come looking for me if I didn't show. Next time I think I might actually have a phone with me!
Find your special place today friends. Wherever it may be.
