Imagine Earths’ a heaven,
It's easy if you try,
No war to kill us,
Above us only sky,
Imagine all the people
living for today...

Imagine our daily bread
Shared without a question
Till all the poor are fed.
It’s something we can do,
People seeing Humans
As friends and family

Imagine Earths’ a country,
It isn’t hard to do,
Nothing to kill or die for,
Just love from me to you,
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...

Imagine no possessions,
I wonder if you can,
No need for greed or hunger,
In a brotherhood of man,
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

Imagine no one lonely
I wonder if you can,
No need for crime and violence,
Imagine all the people
Accepting our truths
As we accept those
Whose truths are a mystery

Imagine saving our planet
For generations yet unborn
I wonder if you will
No waste, no squandered riches
That are not really ours to burn
Think of the bounty we leave them,
It’s the only Earth they’ll have


You may say I’m a dreamer;
But, I’m not the only one,
I hope some day you'll join us,
And belief and logic will be one.

Another blanketing of fresh snow on Thursday evening that hasn't melted off and the peace and quiet of a Sunday morning caused me to climb up into the attic and break out my skis and boots. I expected to be the first one to ski on the fairways of Peninsula State Park in Fish Creek and I am pleased to report that several other avid skiers beat me to it.

This posting can be considered the first of our regular Door County ski trail and snow conditions reports. You can find local trail maps and individual area reports posted throughout the upcoming ski season at SkiDoorCounty.com. With steady low temps, the 1 - 3" snow cover on any of the numerous golf courses in Door County provides numerous opportunities to get back on the boards...
