The soul is not the flashy “attractions” that first draw you in; it’s that part that brings you back. You may not be able to put your finger on it or see it. Sometimes you can tell just driving by, sometimes within a few minutes of being somewhere, and sometimes it just grows on you. […]
If You Need A Reason
Hush
Hush, It will all be over soon. Winter, that is. Enjoy it while you can. I love the muffled, soft quality of the woods when there is a fresh spring snow sticking to everything. A “quiet snow” is different— comforting, calming, giving everything all of its cool embrace and letting us all know to be […]
Planning season! (Not planting season, but similar.)
Planning Season is the time to put those vacation seeds that you have been dreaming about out in the light of day. Share your dreams with others by planting these seeds with overt suggestions, pretty pictures and links. Some “friends and family vacation” gardens are so fertile and grow so fast that this may only […]
Its an avocado!
This is the best 21 seconds of youtube ever. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U5x4Clxh7HM I want to be more like this tot. You know, happy. I am a very happy guy, but that is Yoda-level happy.

Manly Man Purse Package
Murse. Admit it; you want one. I have 2. I need help! The new upgraded version of this 31 Spirit Collection bag is cool grey and has our OSSUM Opossum Creek Retreat logo. I have packed so much stuff in this, I almost needed help carrying it. Use yours to carry stuff for a picnic […]
Get your motor runnin’!
Get your motor runnin’. Head out on the highway! Looking for adventure, and whatever comes my way. I was born born to be wild, like a true nature child. (Admit it, you were singing along!) We are smack in the middle of a couple thousand miles of windy mountain roads. The kind you see on […]
Good for You!
Relaxing in a hot tub is good for you. Fresh air is good for you. Eating well is good for you. Taking a stroll is good for you. A good night’s sleep is good for you. Breaking the routine is good for you. Cheap easy fun is good for you! MLK getaway weekend: 3 nights […]
