Make the Most Of What You Have Over The Fourth

RETREATS.. Make the most of what you have over the Fourth... A haven of calm away from the daily routine, a bright and cheerful place in which to ready for another day or a snug spot to put up your feet.... in peace and quiet. A personal retreat.... always a small little table for a book or magazine and of course a refreshment or two. A retreat... creates a condition of the heart. Embrace this condition whether it be simple pleasure or of glamorous encounter, It adds sense of purpose...

" THE REAL THINGS HAVEN'T CHANGED. IT IS STILL BEST TO BE HONEST AND TRUTHFUL, TO MAKE THE MOST OF WHAT YOU HAVE; TO BE HAPPY WITH SIMPLE PLEASURES; AND HAVE COURAGE WHEN THINGS GO WRONG..." Laura Ingalls Wilder

Ah yes, the opportunity to relax and enjoy the freedom with which we have been blessed. God Bless America!
