Walk away quietly in any direction and taste the freedom of the mountaineer.
All the wild world is beautiful, and it matters but little where we go, to highlands or lowlands, woods or plains, on the sea or land or down among the crystals of waves or high in a balloon in the sky; through all the climates, hot or cold, storms and calms, everywhere and always we are in God's eternal beauty and love. So universally true is this, the spot where we chance to be always seems the best.
Everyone needs beauty...places to play in and pray in where nature may heal & cheer & give strength to the body & soul alike.
