“Heaven is under our feet as well as over our heads.” —Henry David Thoreau
Life is passing us by as we live a fast paced lifestyle trying to achieve. We tend to forget what matters most sometimes, like our soul deep peace and enjoyment of this life we are all leading. Do you take time to slow down and just breathe? Nature has a way of grabbing us to remind us of the bigger picture in life. We are conformed instantly into specks of existence against the magnificence of the whole. Perspective is gained and a look at our lives through a new lens opens our eyes to reality. God is so great big and omnipotent. He is present everywhere if we only but look around. We forget that sometimes in our frantic overscheduled daily life.

WILDERNESS
“There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature—the assurance that dawn comes after night, and spring after winter.” —Rachel Carso
No electricity, spotty cell signal, no in-door plumbing all are recipes for truly enjoying nature undisturbed! Wilderness camping or rustic camping can be so much fun. Quietly listening to the sounds of the woods, or the call of the frogs on the evening air can lull one into such a feeling of complete relaxation! Try chasing a lightening bug or two like you are twelve again! It is such fun!
Do you enjoy the wilderness? Even just doing without electricity for 1 night is great training for conservation! The stars seem brighter, the s’mores taste better, and the family fun revolves around horse play instead of “phones!” Card games or board games are played ad nauseum! Memories are made and tucked away!

CAMPING
“I go to nature to be soothed and healed, and to have my senses put in order.” —John Burroughs
Get together with family to hammock camp! It is truly the best nights sleep! Okay, okay, I too was a sceptic about the whole hammocking idea… But, I have to tell you, it really is more comfortable than you may think! Your spine is supported in a very different way. SO, that along with the slight sway from the breeze, hammocking provides such an enjoyable experience! You will probably sleep late! Note! Be sure your hammock rig-up provides a ridgeline to keep you from sagging into a banana!
Using a tent is not a bad choice either! Campers work too! Each camper has to decide what is most perfect for themselves!

CANOE/FISHING
“There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature—the assurance that dawn comes after night, and spring after winter.” —Rachel Carson
Okay, who loves to canoe? Yes, this is something our family likes to do! We like to launch in different lakes and paddle around fishing for whatever is biting! It is relaxing and builds up an appetite! One morning my husband actually got up before daybreak to go Muskie fishing in a nearby lake close to where we we staying. He and his buddy Joe had a blast paddling and exploring!
It was fun to fish! It was fun to paddle! It was great fun to see the kids enjoying this adventures so much using the canoes that we could launch right from our campsite!

HIKING
“It is not so much for its beauty that the forest makes a claim upon men’s hearts, as for that subtle something, that quality of air that emanation from old trees, that so wonderfully changes and renews a weary spirit.” —Robert Louis Stevenson
I was astounded at the number of hiking trails available in this location! The Upper Peninsula of Michigan is a playground for the hikers! The hikes seem to be present everywhere you go! The views on the hikes are usually of the most scenic vistas or lakes! Grab a good pair of shoes and pack your adventuresome-ness and GO! EXPLORE! HAVE AN ADVENTURE IN THE U.P. hiking these amazing trails!

PEACE
“Nature is loved by what is best in us.” —Ralph Waldo Emerson
We love an adventure! We love exploring! The wilderness calls our name frequently to come explore! We truly enjoy and soak up as much of God’s beauty as possible. Nature has a way of seeping into the cracks surrounding the stresses of our lives to create a soothing buffer between the stress and our need for peace! Achieving that balance keeps us centered and focused on the end goals, not the obstacles that lie in wait to derail your life journeys!
Embrace each moment that presents itself to you to truly enjoy this summer! Celebrate each moment of peace and tranquility!
