There is a pleasure in the pathless woods, there is a rapture on the lonely shore, there is society, where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar: I love not man the less, but Nature more

Shout Out of the Day: Susan Kaye Bean

My mom gets the shout out of the day today because she sent me a package in the mail full of goodies from home. The best thing in the package was a book called A Walk in the Woods by Bill Bryson. It's a really funny book about hiking the Appalachian Trail. My parents learned about it at Home Builders, a group they are attending through church. My mom called me after the meeting where they talked about the book to ask if I had read it. I said I hadn't, and a few days later I got an email from my mom saying "Any mail lately?" I went to the post office and had a package with the book in it! I can't wait to read it.

Thanks, Mom!! You're the best.
