* Today's quote deserves a post all of its own...
-- Quote of the Day --
"I
remember a hundred lovely lakes, and recall the fragrant breath of pine and fir
and cedar and poplar trees.
The trail has strung upon it, as upon a thread of
silk, opalescent dawns and saffron sunsets.
It has given me blessed release
from care and worry and the troubled thinking of our modern day.
It has been a
return to the primitive and the peaceful.
Whenever the pressure of our complex
city life thins my blood and benumbs my brain, I seek relief in the trail; and
when I hear the coyote wailing to the yellow dawn, my cares fall from me — I am
happy."
~ Hamlin Garland, McClure’s, February 1899
