Journaling:
We happened on it quite by accident. Leaving the museums garden cafe I was drawn by sculptures in the garden. We walked past sculptures by Henry Moore, Joan Miro and Alexander Calder, past a man-made grassy hill and through a bamboo tree tunnel. We continued on through a concrete tunnel under the hill, which ended at a circular walkway, and
followed the path between two tall curved walls open to the sky. It led into a circular concrete space with a high domed white ceiling. The structure, crowned with a perfectly round oculus, was open to the sky, perfectly clear and blue on this warm April San Francisco day. As I help my phone aloft to snap the perfect blue circle, it was broken by a Golden Gate crow.

I look forward to returning and spending some time in this lovely and quiet place.
I love the blocky shapes of this, not to mention your photo-bombing bird. You've got great movement across the page, too. I love the de Young myself...can't wait to get back.
 
Wonderful journaling about the process of discovering the special space. I explored his story, and have spent some time in quaker meetings. I would love to see his live oak friends meeting house.
 
so serene and lovely, both your new discovery and your layout. love your journaling too.
