Red pines along the shore of Trout Lake in northern Wisconsin

Feel the Northwoods Breeze

Standing on the Shore

Imagine standing on the eastern shore of Trout Lake in northern Wisconsin.

It's early afternoon in August, temperature is around 75 degrees.

There is a slight southerly breeze touching your face with the softness of a feather.

The Gentle Waves

Below your feet, you can hear the gentle, rhythmic tune of the few waves casually washing onshore.

The air is filled with the wonderful northwoods smells -- pines and sweet fern.

Image Comes Alive

Doesn't this image just make it all come alive for you?

That's what it was like when I took this image.

Hope it brightens your day.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

"If you do what you can do,

and I do what I can do,

together, we can make a difference.”
