[QUOTE="HereWeGoAgain, post: 106470, member: 3485"] My parents and my brother and I stayed in a lodge on a lake in the woods when I was 12 or so. I got up one morning before everyone else and took a rowboat out on the lake. It was a crisp morning, foggy and very very quiet. I just drifted for a long time. Years later in college I participated in a field study in marine science. We did 5 hour shifts in a boat anchored in an estuary, collecting water samples and measuring temperature, salinity, and current. One of my shifts was in the early morning twilight, again foggy and very quiet. As we're sitting in the boat (a grad student and I) in between samples a big heron glided by in absolute silence, wings outstretched, and a pair of dolphins swimming just underneath. Absolutely breathtaking. So a small boat in the predawn light, on a chilly, foggy, silent morning, is where I go in my mind for serenity. [/QUOTE]
