Welcome to Water in the River!

Welcome to our new blog!

Hopefully, our tenure here will be as long (if not longer) than at our previous blog.

Enjoy (and leave a lot of comments - we LOVE comments!) :)

Oooooh! I love the title of your new blog and I love that you "borrowed" it from Thoreau. :)

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
