Enjoying The View.

This is Llyn Fach (in English, Small Lake), in Rhigos, South Wales. It's a very interesting place.

It's a glacial lake, meaning it was left here by the glaciers that carved these Valleys out of the mountain during the Ice Age.

It used to be much smaller, but was deepened between 1909 and 1913 so it could be used as a reservoir. During this time workmen discovered the Llyn Fach Hoard.

A treasure trove of celtic bronze, most notably a cauldron, as well as several chisels, sickles and axes were discovered. Also an iron sword and spear heads. This means that this site was active during the cross over from Bronze Age to Iron Age for votive offers.

I don't know who the god, goddess or spirit the offerings were left for, but this is a holy place.

picture this

you’re in your late-20’s, early-30’s; you’re married and have two young kids. together, you live in a large house in the countryside. the house could use renovating, but it doesn’t need it.

Picture This

wildflowers grow all over your large property. bees buzz by, but never sting. they make honey for your family to sell and enjoy.

Picture This

in your backyard is a garden. you and your spouse wear overalls and bandanas while you harvest the fruits and vegetables you’ve worked so hard on; you sell whatever you don’t eat.

Picture This

next to the garden is a pasture: you raise cows, bunnies, sheep, and chickens. you’ve taught your children to collect eggs every morning, while you and your spouse milk the cows.

Picture This

although you have technology, wifi, and service, your family doesn’t rely on it for entertainment and communication. you play board games, read books, and write letters.

Picture This

your house is your own. you fall asleep in the arms of the person you love, happily content with life.
