Alto Vista Chapel

We rode our little bikes 6 km against the wind which today is gusting at about 25 knots to the Northwest end of the island to see the Alta Vista Chapel. Lovely and serene. Very picturesque.
They have a labyrinth behind the church. Walking the labyrinth is meant to be a time of meditation and reflection. We walked it and all I could think about was the similarity to way they make the line ups at the airport. You walk a mile going back and forth when a straight line is a distance of about 10 meters.
And what's with this guy. He has a chain link fence, a hedge of cactus, which for me, that alone would stop anyone or anything from getting through, and then a line of rocks, I guess just in case you thought you could drive your car through the cactus and the chain link. He also has a sign on his gate stating that the property is protected by security alarms. Just what the heck is he hiding in there?
Nice decoration. Hang your beer cans on your tree. Why not?
Nice rocks, eh?
No more geology lessons. But if anyone can tell me what kind of rocks these are, I'll buy you a Balashi.
