"Just when it looks like life is falling apart, it may be falling together for the first time. Trust the process of life, and not so much the outcome. Destinations have not nearly as much value as journeys. So maybe you should let things fall apart if that's what's happening. The nice thing about things falling apart is that you can pick up only the pieces that you want." ~Neale Donald Walsch

Flavor #22 "Huckleberry Finn"
"The Lake", Jan & Reid's farm in Amish country in Wisconsin, was a major interlude on that cool midwestern summer trip. Hiking, biking, tomahawk throwing, what else?
They had 200+ wooded acres to explore, the highlight of which was the 15 acre lake. Reid only allowed rafts, canoes, and paddleboats. No motors permitted, in an effort to keep it serene and unpolluted.
So it was more like a throwback to simpler times. And looks like those times weren't all bad....
Maybe a guy should have a summer interlude like that every year. But at least once in a lifetime, everyone should.
Ahh, those were the days!
