Meditate at Brenton Arboretum

I've discovered a nearby place in the great outdoors to meditate, contemplate, reflect, relax, and picnic, alone or with others. It’s the Brenton Arboretum in Dallas Center, IA, with 140 acres of over 2000 trees, a two-mile winding road with parking areas, six walking trails, lakes and streams, a Pavilion for picnics, and a soon-to-be completed classroom for events. And it’s free. My thanks to Arboretum Founder Buz Brenton for giving me a personal tour and bringing to my attention the Arboretum's value to meditators, as individuals or in groups.
