especially during the summer, I spend a good deal of time at a small, 35 or so acre lake my maternal grandfather built some 50 years ago. From a swampy area of land, he removed a lot of trees and stumps and dug out a bit of the ground and then let natural springs fill up the area that is nearly surrounded by rolling hills covered in maples and pines (among a number of other types of trees).
The result is a nice little piece of nature to which I can escape and quietly enjoy the calming scenery. The more I do so, the more variety in life forms I find - birds, trees, insects, flowers, land animals, and, of course, various aquatic life.
