Reflections

 Reflecting on the flooding of Echo Lake this year brings to mind all the things that have stopped. Fast boating is prohibited because of the wakes that erode the shores. The Causeway is flooded and you have to go the long way around to the highway. But in the still and the quiet , the lack of disturbing waves, the loons have returned to nest. Always when we lose something if we open our hands we also gain the universe.
