A Day on the River




Floating down a river is one of the things that feed my soul.  


Water flowing beneath me, carrying me around the bend to the next beautiful surprise of an eagle floating high in the sky or egret fishing for lunch, and just the simple act of a leaf falling to the water and dancing in the ripples excites me. 


 
All of my senses become so acutely aware that I can feel the tiny hairs on my sink wiggle in the breeze, hear a squirrel nibble on a found treat, and see sunshine turning into diamond sparkles on the jade green water.  


There is just something magical about a river that is always there and ever changing.
