There is something very comforting to return to a place we know we will find peace and quiet. 🙂

There is something very alarming to return to a place we know we will find peace and quiet and find it has been …… overrun, invaded, infested, trampled, trashed, occupied, smashed, ambushed and wiped out. 😦

Some places are best kept in memory. 😉

Love Empire – love the stone beach. It’s cool here, too. Inland on Lake Margrethe. Sunny, but cool. If there is anything I have learned about Michigan summers, it is to be patient. Peace.

it’s always good to find a quiet place — unless it’s the film of the same name: an unsettling, visceral experience 🙂
