Big Manitou Falls, Pattison State Park. Note the tiny people on the overlook platform in the upper left.Last weekend, admission to Wisconsin State Parks was free. Russ and I took advantage of this annual event to visit a park that’s only 22 miles from our house. As you, dear astute readers, can tell from the title of this post, Pattison State Park is home to the state’s tallest waterfall. The

| Lots of maggots in this one. Perhaps too many. I don't recommend reading this while home alone -- it is scary. If I see a rabbit in my house, I'm going to freak out. Good book if you're in the mood for horror and the end of the world. ...more | |

“Her cousins laughed, daring the next wave to wash over before they passed. While they ran, a huge swell rolled along the side of the pier, fat fingers reaching up just in time to pluck them from the pier and win the macabre game of tag.

“It had been years since Melora listened to a symphony. She had been struck by how natural and organic the music was. She found herself thinking about how the instruments were all human powered—not one electrical impulse among them. Maybe that was why it was so easy to get transported by the music—to find oneself thinking about vast outdoor landscapes when the music played.”
