River Hiatus…

The journey for me intensifies as my husband and I move further north to begin the awesome endeavor of having our log home built on the river. As the slice of photo reveals in my weblog header, it’s a beautiful place to be….15+ wooded acres with part ownership in an adjacent 38 acre nature conservancy teaming with wildlife…We’ll also have our own peninsula on a 16 acre private pond….After working hard all our lives, and raising four children, we are finally on the way to living our retirement dream, albeit earlier than most….Let me say, the journey that brought us this far has by no means been an easy one….We’ve done our homework and the major planning, now it’s time to manifest the dream….There will be Bald Headed Eagles, River Otters, and even an occasional Black Bear among the myriad creatures stopping by for a visit….I will be actively involved with The Wisconsin River Alliance, and also The Wisconsin Wetlands Association, and most likely a few other organizations dedicated to wildlife and nature conservancy as well….So, as you can imagine, I’ll be extremely busy out and about….Yes, I’ll still be holding the usual politicians’ feet to the fire, but I’m not sure how much time I’ll have to stop in here to rant and rave….I’m hoping to get some pictures up eventually….Nevertheless, I have some excellent links to peruse should you stop by while I’m gone….

Shine On My Cherished Friends…
Onward…
Peace…

    Ohhh, I love rivers and river otters! You’re so lucky. We live acrosss the street of a river. But no river otters. We were going to make an offer on a house that is directly on a river nearby but the people took the house off the market when they heard someone was making an offer. I guess they decided they love rivers afterall too. haha.

    Oh well.

    Beautiful country up there! I hitchhiked through there in ‘74 and was enchanted. Although I love my own state of North Carolina, Wisconsin is probably my favorite state in the midwest. My ex-wife was at Madison for a while and assured me of its grooviness.

    Enjoy!

    staticbrain.comAh the joys of the river. The pull must be great to lure you away from here. Hope you are enjoying life on the river.

    Update: I have my own dot com. Static Brain

    Stop on by. It’s a huge mess and all but it will get there. :-)

    Well, I’m glad someone’s dreams are coming true. Congratulations on a trek well travelled, Mary. Sounds like you earned yourself a little slice of heaven up there. I wish you the continued best.

    Til further on…
