Quiet Stillness


We spent most of the Holidays on the family farm in the Hoosier National Forest in southern Indiana. No internet down there. You can't get a signal for your cell phone unless you trudge up the big hill by the big barn. It's pretty quiet in the Holler. For someone like me who likes to keep up to speed with Facebook and Twitter, it's a nice way to force a tech sabbatical. School has started again. The schedule has amped up. During the busyness I like to think about the sound of that bubbling creek and the quiet stillness of the valleys on the farm.
