Trek Assessment #4
My favorite experience of my treks is an easy pick. During the first trek when I was recording only sounds, I made a decision to stop at my old church and see what sounds I could find. I vaugly recalled the priest having wind chimes set outside the main doors so I went to find them. There was a walkthrough between the church and the rectory which was covered by a roof extending between the two. This created a wind tunnel that carried sounds and reverberated them. Through the eight years I spent at St. Mary's, I never really paid attention to this, but when I was wearing enclosed headphones, it blew me away how beautiful the full, rich sound of the chimes echoing and reflecting a hundred times all around me as I walked through that tunnel. To top it all off, I was all alone, enjoying those moments between me and God.
