Quote by Hamlin Garland
I remember a hundred lovely lakes, and recall the fragrant breath

I remember a hundred lovely lakes, and recall the fragrant breath of pine and fir and cedar and poplar trees. The trail has strung upon it, as upon a thread of silk, opalescent dawns and saffron sunsets. – Hamlin Garland
