Away again

Hello to All
These are the some of the last places I was in Belize, the land of sharks, pirates and dense jungle. Finally I spent some time out in the depths of Belize's jungle, and it almost got the best of me. I endured 5 nights in the jungle and nearly got washed away while camping on the side of an unexpected rising river, after a night of heavy rain. Then had to cross many creeks that had risen from nearly no water to knee deep swift current. It was well worth the adventure, considering the Belizian system requires you hike with a guide if you are more than 5 miles from any headquarters. I did not really understand this rule, nor want a somebody holding my hand for 10 miles so I went out on my own and simply had to be a little careful.
Anyhow it was great to be out, alone, to have a chance to really get away from it all. Although I have been away from home, I have not been away from all those things I like to do without in order to find peace, quiet, and a place to simply rest.
I think about home and how easy it really is to just be and live peacefully. I hope everyone at home is taking full advantage of it and doing a little more of it on my behalf. It is great to be away, but now I love everything we enjoy at home even more.
