The River Comes Alive

   The rivers of Northern Minnesota during the summer are slow and low, just perfect for a slow paddling trip. But in the last week, they have turned into raging rivers, splashing and churning. With all the rain we have gotten, the rivers are full and have spilled out of their banks.
   In Itasca County, several roads were wiped right off the map and now as the waters recede, there is no trace of where a road once was. Water has a way of erasing things.
   A few years back there was a favorite lake that always provided good duck hunting. I hunted there for years. Then one rainy day, the river bank gave away and the lake disappeared. Completely gone in just a few minutes. Now you can walk across where the lake once was without getting your feet wet.
   You can find the EBook Kindle edition of "The River Calls" at Amazon.com and at peaceriverbooks.com. The Peace River Books blog is updated each day. 
   I invite you to visit "The River Calls" blog site each day for a small look into what life was like a long time ago.
Good Reading,
Ron
