ReplyDeleteMy fav summer past-time is our 2 week vacation at our cottage. We are totally in the wilderness on our own Lake ~ no electricity (solar), no phones or laptops, no neighbours, zippo. ** P-E-A-C-E and Q-U-I-E-T ** It's a total SHOCK to the system when you first arrive ~ by the end of the two weeks you can't imagine returning to work and the City. It's truely the BEST :0)
