to clean the East End Overlook bathrooms,
this is the only location of restrooms on the property
for visitors. Remember AOA has no visitor center,
it is a beautiful place to ponder, pray, and enjoy the
spirit that this wonderful valley holds.
One of the treasures that you receive for this amazing service,
is the blessings of meeting the visitors, and hearing their stories.
Why they are here? Where they are going? and Where they are from?
Sound familiar.
This is the area that we burned and look how beautiful
the prairie grass is growing back soon the area will
be filled with flowers.
When visitors come to the East End they can enjoy a
picnic with the scenic view of the valley.
