Nature's Ice Sculpture

After a week off swimming, I returned to practice

Saturday morning. The weather, of course, was cold and

given the sometimes erratic bus schedules,

I did not want to risk frostbite waiting for one at night.

After practice, I went over to Eskenazi Health

to catch the bus for home. There I could go inside

the lobby to enjoy the beautiful artwork,

or go outside to enjoy the water features.

Here, the falls created from stacked blocks 

of limestone created sculptures of their own.

From lovely ruffled edges around the cattails, to

lacy drapes over the flowing water,

the stone and the cold weather

bend the water into vignettes 

of ever-changing beauty.
