For this #SilentSunday... An image taken earlier this week of a place where my friends and I had #Beltaine / #MayDay rituals years ago. I'm not sure if #ThomasMorton had ever visited #Newbury, but if he had visited #Quascacunquen / #OldTownHill, I'm sure he would have wanted to erect a Maypole there. Now under the stewardship of the Trustees of Reservations, there is a circle of 12 large rocks around a tree there now -- and evidence that even today, folks are still having rituals atop this sacred spot!
