Although Crystal Hermitage and its gardens are closed due to the coronavirus, Ananda Village residents are allowed to visit — by reservation; two per hour; masked and gloved!
It was glorious to spend an hour immersed in the beauty and sunlight and fresh air. And as a bonus, we actually got to see and greet a few friends (from an appropriate social distance, of course)!
We don’t usually make it there so early in the season, so this was our first time witnessing the cherry blossoms in their full splendor. Although there are already lots of tulips, the wisteria and dogwood trees aren’t yet in full bloom. So we’ll definitely be making another appointment (or two…or three!) over the coming weeks.
