Lost Canoe Lake, with a blue row boat on its shore, under a blue summer sky

A Lake to Enjoy

Imagine

Take a short minute and image standing on the shoreline of this calm, northern Wisconsin lake.

With a blue sky overhead in late June, there is an eagle flying in the calm., distant yet clearly visible, as you look to the sky to the left.

It’s mid-afternoon. Warm, but not sweltering hot.

Comfortable.

Present in the Moment

Do you know feel completely within the scene?

As you take it all in, standing along Lost Canoe Lake near Boulder Junction, Wisconsin, you find yourself alone.

Being a mid-week afternoon, there is very little traffic on the rural road nearby.

The few homes and cottages behind you on the lake are quiet.

It is now just you, the lake, the forest, and the sky.

Completely present in the moment.

Total Enjoyment

“Does it get any better than this?” A thought you contemplate.

As you leave, you wonder how can you keep this feeling that you currently hold

Keep that Feeling Forever

We all need to take a break periodically, if only for a moment.

Great artwork

  • helps us remember those wonderful times,

  • puts us back into the special moment,

  • places us within the scene, and

  • rekindles that great feeling.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

"If you do what you can do,

and I do what I can do,

together, we can make a difference.”
