I could never live in the city. My soul craves nature and fresh air with lots of trees and wooded areas. I live in Michigan, about 3.5 hours north of detroit. It really is beautiful here, fall being my favorite time of the year. My inner muse would be most unsettled if I moved to a crowded area, nothing is more beautiful than the simple things we see everyday - the clouds, the trees, the leaves on the ground in the woods. What a perfect setting for a story, or song to be written, or a picture to be drawn. Our most cherrished tales have sprung from somebody who stopped to look at the breathtaking beauty of our beloved nature........and was moved.
