The World Speaks
Take some time to listen to the world by joining our Southwest Ohio Illuman Wandering. The heart of the experience is a solo walking trip into forests, along the waterways, and across the fields of one of Ohio's most beautiful state parks.
The World Speaks is a phrase from a poem called Earth Dwellers written by acclaimed poet William Stafford. We will start our day by the reading of this poem. Then we will wander.
Taking the time to be in creation is life-giving, calming, inspirational, and instructive. We will immerse ourselves in the natural beauty of Caesar Creek State Park, and the world.
Date/Time: June 19, 2021, 9 a.m. until 1:30 p.m.
Location: Flat Fork Ridge Parking Area at Caesar Creek State Park
Cost: Free
RSVP: Email or Call - Tom Sparough / 513-602-0948.
Caesar’s Creek State Park
Located between Columbus, Cincinnati and Dayton, Caesar’s Creek offers a great variety of natural settings and activities including forest hiking, waterfall misting, flower gazing, bird watching, insect peering, creak strolling, and fossil finding.
Our starting spot is strategically located in a shaded picnic area next to flush toilets along the banks of Caesar Creek Lake, and is handicapped accessible. There is a variety of terrain and pathways, from the gentle to the challenging.
We will gather at 9 a.m. to have a brief check in, share our guiding poem, and then begin our solo, three-hour wandering. We will re-gather once again in the safety of the great outdoors for discussion and a bring-your-own-lunch, concluding about 1:30 p.m. It may be helpful to bring your own lawn chair to sit on during the opening and closing portions of the day.
