There is nothing more beautiful than the pond lotus; perfect in every sense. They're probably as old as Buddha and as enduring.
Here, Buddha is admiring the view.
Also old in time and enduring are many old order Mennonite families in the surrounding area; in fact, many stores provide mini stables for tethering the horses while the owners shop.
This owner chose a close-by convenience --shade and a sturdy hitching post.
The story goes that Mennonites buy retired race horses to pull their buggies and their steeds have a spirited look about them.
Not to be confusing, but my son is a new order Mennonite and I don't believe he is sure which end of the horse is which; lucky for him the new order group drive cars and doesn`t own any black clothing, unless it`s a tux or a basic black dress.
If I continue it will be confusing.
I`ll stop now.
