Ian and I took our usual Tuesday morning walking through the part today, even though it is a Saturday. When I got up at sunrise, it was raining and extremely foggy. While I was having breakfast a thunderstorm passed through and cleared out the rain but not the fog. By the time we got into the part at about 6:45, the sun was beginning to break through the clouds and we were presented with a truly beautiful series of scenes as we walked.
After we had completed one circuit around the park and had gone out to the convenience store for a sports drink, we discovered this view of Kannon, the Bodhisattva of compassiona and birth, rising out of the clouds across the valley. This was particularly symbolic because Kannon is the speaker, the giver of knowledge, in the sutra that we will chant at each of the 88 temples.
