sunrise on cabin lake.
James just got back from spending a few days in the great Manitoban wilderness with a few guys, a gun and whole bunch of beer. I was glad that he was able to get away to take a breather from our busy city lives. Camping is a great way to re-adjust and I wish I was able to do it more often (especially today...my toddler has decided to test my patience a little bit more than usual). James awoke early one morning and took a picture of the sunrise and I just had to post the picture. So beautiful! Manitoba can get such a bum-wrap but when you take a moment to stop and look around you find that it truly is a stunning place to live.
one great quote...
"whenever i get gloomy with the state of the world, i think of the arrivals gate at heathrow airport. general opinion makes out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, i don't see that. seems to me that love is everywhere. often it's not articularly dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there. fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. when the planes hit the twin towers, i have reason to believe that none of the calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge, they were all messages of love. if you look for it, i've got a sneaky feeling you'll find that love actually is all around." -Love Actually
