Quotes

  • Actual happiness looks pretty squalid in comparison with the overcompensations for misery. And, of course, stability isn’t nearly so spectacular as instability. And being contented has none of the glamour of a good fight against misfortune, none of the picturesqueness of a struggle with temptation, or a fatal overthrow by passion or doubt. Happiness is never grand. - Aldous Huxley, Brave New World
  • Education
    "Must we always teach our children with books? Let them look at the stars and the mountains above. Let them look at the waters and the trees and flowers on Earth. Then they will begin to think, and to think is the beginning of a real education." -David Polis
  • "Above all, do not lose your desire to walk: every day I walk myself into a state of well-being and walk away from every illness; I have walked myself into my best thoughts, and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it... but by sitting still, and the more one sits still, the closer one becomes to feeling ill... Thus if one just keeps walking, everything will be all right." -Soren Kierckgaard
  • Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower. - Albert Camus
  • How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. Annie Dillard

Sauna

P1080081

The Lazy Sauna at Freedom Camp, built in an old garden shed, which might have once been an outhouse, is finished and it is beautiful.

Mark & I spent a lot of time enjoying the sauna in the last month (separately, as Arlo isn't really into it), but surprisingly, we weren't the only ones spending time in it.

Silas & Levi really like it too, they usually sauna for about 5 minutes while Mark or I are in there.  One night, Mark fired up the woodstove before going for a run.  When he went to check on the fire after running, he found Si & Levi inside - they were outside & discovered the sauna was hot, so they stripped down & went in!

Mark, you did an amazing job on the Sauna. I know it will bring years of enjoyment at Freedom Camp.

Thanks. The thermometer and hygrometer work great also...we like it around 170F and 7% humidity, with an occasional splash of water (with Pine essential oil). I can't believe how well it works and how much we all love it.
