    Look up the book Shantyboat, by Harlan Hubbard. He lived like Thoreau for about 50 years over in Trimble County KY, just across the river from me here. Payne Hollow is very good as well. Great books about... well, life.

    Harlan Hubbard

    One of my favorite passages from a book comes from the end of Payne Hollow:


    "Then, early Monday morning, when I go down to the shore, the quiet river seems newly created. Mist lifts from the smooth water, creeps up into Payne Hollow and rises skyward until it cathes the light of the morning sun. My faith is renewed, and I rejoice after my own fashion."
