Here are a few pictures from the Well Spring Retreat Center in Blanco, TX where I spent last week on a prayer retreat with Sandy Casey-Martus and Carla Mancari.
This is a typical picture of the "Texas hill country"--you can see the hills in the background. These
caliche roads are all around the countryside.
This is the chapel where we prayed three hours every day. A better picture of the chapel is
here, though I liked this one with the typical brush in front.
This is an amazing 26 foot tall bronze statue of Jesus. He looks like he is walking towards you with open arms. I can't remember who the artist is though.

These are great pictures. Thanks for posting. But, mainly, I am just astounded to know that there is so much to know about caliche. Thanks for the link to that. I am amazed. Hope it was a good retreat.
Another image of Mary hold the baby Jesus. How cool!
It looks beautiful Jan!
Wonderful pictures. The forward-facing view of the Jesus statue--he almost looks like he is in the middle of a tai-chi move.
I really love that statue of Jesus.
