There's a nature trail nearby that's really nice. There's a huge pond where you can see the ducks and on the other side you can walk over the bridge and see the river. Then the trail leads up to a park with wild geese who like to roam around.

The only place I can get peace and quiet time is when I go to my house every other weekend.  The rest of the time I live at my daughter's house so I can keep my 11 month old grandson while she works.  She also has 2 stepsons that constantly pick on each other.

At night when everyone is asleep, or doing my time of meditation.

I miss going to the beach, but it is an 2 hour drive from me now. I just like to go for a walk at the park or something when I want some peace and quiet time. Walking helps me to clear my head.

I live in an apt. building now.

My son built me a raised bed garden in the back yard at his place.

He has a little shady back portch off his garage, and I can relax and enjoy.

My happy place, quiet place, and a place for me.

I go walking daily for peace and quiet.  Family peace and quiet is going to the race track and hearing race cars fly by, the smell of the race fuel.

I live in a suburby type town.  So our neighborhood is always flourishing with some sort of noise.  We have local parks... but none are really quiet.  Although now that kids are in school there are a few places along the Illinois River where it's natural, serene and peaceful. Although I don't have the opportunity to meditate in those areas often.... so I opt for the times in in my car.  Alone.  Or at work, on a very rare occasion the store is empty... and I'm the only one in the department.  Ahhhh so nice!
