Water in the River

Poling through the water.

Showing off his big Rambo muscles. Pardon the flash.

Love the spray of water from whacking the bamboo in the water.

Notice the tongue out in concentration?

I love the ones with him sitting on the edge of the pier. He looks like he is having fun. But when isn't he? LOVED the scenic pics too. If they don't get me down there lickity-split, nothing will!

The Peace of Wild Things

When despair for the world grows in me
and I wake in the night at the least sound
in fear of what my life and my children's lives may be,
I go and lie down where the wood drake
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.
I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought
of grief. I come into the presence of still water.
And I feel above me the day-blind stars
waiting with their light. For a time
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.

— Wendell Berry
