monastery


Over the Thanksgiving break, D and I along with my parents, ventured off to a monastery in West Virginia (Holy Cross Hermitage). It was a still weekend, visiting the monks. Their love for the land and the animals there is evident, and humbling. Their work milking the cows, making soap, and crafting incense is so tangible! I loved hearing the bells. Those pictured below are made from old oxygen tanks!
