Beauty in Edmonds,Washington by Iswari

North Carolina Waterfall

Here are some more notes from Vedvati’s trip. The words and photos are hers except a few updated words for the blog format.

Sooo fantastic!! It is named Dry Falls which is crazy because these falls are definitely not dry. The Falls are near Franklin, North Carolina.

We walked behind the falls.

The photo below shows the rocks under the waterfall. See how they are a bit smoother than the rocks nearer the front in the video?

This reminded me so much of Amma, my spiritual teacher, and how she patiently smoothes away our rough edges.

Look at the water drops. When the water falls down, the drops look like the water is dancing! Sooo much fun!!

The river after/below the falls.

Driving on the mountain road after leaving the falls. Sooo wonderful!

My friend Jagati sent me this photo, and gave me permission to post ít.

Texas Beauty

Vedavati had to go back to the United States to get a new visa.

Sunrise at Galveston Beach where I’ve gone to all my life, until I left Texas. It was fabulous to go back there.
These Oleanders almost made me feel I was back in Amritapuri. Galveston is full of them too

Amritapuri, India Sunrise 4 am 4/15/22

Vedavati says the lights are fishing boats. The fishermen start their work early.

Amritapuri, India Flowers #2

Vedavati bought a new phone. That means she also has a new phone camera! She said: I am loving the new camera. Not so sure about loving the different style of spell wrecker.

This rose was just a little smaller than this.

Vedavati sent me another evening sun photo with these comments: The evening sun- beams on the water. See close to shore how pink it is? I’ve never seen the sunlight reflecting similar to moonlight before.

During my night, Vedavati sent me a sunset photo from a few days back.

She sent this comment along with the photo:

Sometimes my jaw simply drops at the beauty.
