RECONNECT

We of The Study are back from a trip which for us was a trip to the ‘Extreme North’, 5+ hours North of our ‘Northern Camp’.

We visited, for the first time in six years, the Michigan Keweenaw Peninsula and lands between there and the Leelanau Peninsula, our ‘usual’ Northern retreat.

Although internet service works for some in this part of our state, it did not work for us.

We did not access TV or radio or newspapers.

We could have if we had tried a bit.

We were not beyond the pale of civilization by any means.
But we were in a land of 400-500 wolves, by best estimates; bears, unknown numbers; and all the other assorted luvlies [spelling, I know] one would expect.
We met people such as we have never met before.

And we became aware of a death some years ago of a man we think of often.

And now we are back for a little while.

The newspapers are once again being devoured. TV is tuned to the best sources.
Political discussions have begun again.

The world is a fascinating place.

As the events of the last seven days of our trip are digested, I/we will endeavor to share that which is appropriate and/or interesting.

Sometimes I succeed in this. Sometimes I fail.

We’ll see.

Again, the world is a fascinating place.
