- - This spot is our little paradise @thousandislands_. It is not fancy but it sure is cozy and not too big. Mom named it Invictus House as she loved that poem. She was a poet so she even named her dogs after her favorite poets. No wonder, I am a character❤️ INVICTUS “Out of the night that covers me Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul. In the fell clutch of circumstance, I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody, but unbowed. Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the Horror of the shade, And yet the menace of the years Finds, and shall find, me unafraid. It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll, I am the master of my fate I am the captain of my soul. “ Next trip up we will have the boats and jet skis put on our dock. The snow is just off the ground here so I am bundling up for our hike. the trail is empty so I can sing and dance without frightening anyone. Life is good on this very Blessed Easter Sunday. Thank you, Lord.
