We’ve returned from the wilds of northern Wisconsin, and
even though we had to scale back our annual weeklong trip to just a few days, the
lack of phones, Internet, cable TV and city noise left us feeling relaxed and
rejuvenated. If you ask me, endless hours of talking, reading, hiking, fishing, picture taking, and drinking Old Fashioneds represent the perfect way to spend the last few
days of a great midwestern summer….

Sunrise over the fog-covered lake |
|
Crystal clear waters alongside the dock |
|
Endless trees beneath miles of cloudless blue skies |
|
The long climb back up to civilization |
|
Day trip to a nearby trail |
|
Hiking beneath webs of pine tree needles |
|
Dainty lilac daisies underfoot along the way |
|
The final destination: a remote, lily pad-covered pond |
|
Watching the sunset on the deck, listening to frogs, cocktails in hand |
