THE GOOD LIFE
Envy? I can understand why many readers are envious when the descriptions of life in the
wilderness are sent. I have noted that some recipients only look at the pictures
and ignore the rich prose that I take a long time to string together. So here is a very
short descriptive essay that is really a game. See if you can find each of the items
listed below. The picture underscores just how wonderful life in the bush can be.
