These beautiful days
must enrich all my life
they do not exist merely as pictures
maps hung on the walls of memory
but they saturate themselves into every part of my body
and live always

"All that glitters is not gold. All who wander are not lost"
Shakespeare

"Live each day as you would climb a mountain. An occassional glance towards the summit puts the goal in mind. Many beautiful scenes can be observed from each new vantage point. Climb steadily, slowly, enjoy each passing moment, and the veiw from the summit will serve as a fitting climax for the journey"
Joe Porcino

Rio Grande, Bordering Texas and Mexico"Swift or smooth, broad as the Hudson or narrow enough to scrape your gunwhales, every river is a world of its own, unique in pattern and personality. Each mile on a river will take you further from home than a hundred miles on a road"
