SAINT-GAUDENS Our 69th Park in our 27th State

This park is in Cornish, NH.  We were familiar with the work of Augustus Saint-Gaudens but knew nothing of him.

Unveiled on Boston Common in 1897, the Shaw Memorial, final version, 1900 exhibited here at the national historic site.

Beautiful flower gardens (August)

 I couldn't get over this tree.  It was enormous and beautiful.

We found, as I am sure Saint-Gaudens did, this to be a place of beauty and meditation.  We could have stayed here all day and absorbed the beauty.
