Quiet Spaces is a group for those who have a fine appreciation for places that promote serenity or are inherently quiet. The group will explore these quiet spaces and share new ones with each other. From my perspective, it is these places which develop wholeness of mind and heart. They give us the chance to feel our most dignified and noble and open ourselves to appreciate that in others. So the social aspect of the group should also reflect conversation that promotes quietness of mind. To prote …

Instead of bringing dogs to a fenced in "boxing ring" to rough house and potentially get hurt, we are bringing them on a focused walk in their most natural state - in a pack.
