Good Morning! I’ve spent a lot of years wondering about life, and I’m still no closer to knowing it all. But- – – that’s the fun part, right?

Looking outside across the lakes, streams, and rivers where my wife and I live, the morning is a bit misty. But with the mist rising against the fall colours, and the sun shining just right, it’s truly a sight to behold. It makes a feller feel mighty lucky to be able to take it all in. It makes me wonder, though, how often do we take a moment to appreciate the beauty around us? Perhaps it’s in these quiet times that we uncover answers to questions we didn’t even know we were asking.

These days, Highway 522 is still pretty quiet, with mostly townsfolk out and about, looking for things to do and see. It’s just part of the small-town vibe, where life moves a little slower, and every day brings its own little adventures.

On another note, I got a lot done outside yesterday. And I have to say that It feels good when things go according to plan. I moved most of my firewood closer to the woodworking shop and even found time to tidy it up a bit. Then, I took a moment to enjoy a cup or two of coffee with my lovely wife, soaking up the much-needed sunshine.

With that once again I am off for my breakfast that my little woman has prepared for me, and will then head on outdoors.

You all have a great day, and I will leave you with this, that was told to me many years ago. “Every choice we make shapes our journey. Choose wisely and enjoy the ride.” GW
