Your life is not lying in wait in the future like a wild animal or some ominous destiny. Nor is it hidden in the heavens, like a paradise or promise. Nor is it shut up in the cave or the prison of your past. It is here and now; it is what you live and what you do. At the heart of being; at the heart of the present; at the heart of everything – in the great current of life, of reality.

My sister and I took the kids to my parent's vacation home in Arkansas in June and we made a visit to the Rocky Ridge Refuge - they rescue exotic and common animals in need. It is, also, the home of Lurch, an African Watusi steer. Lurch is the Guinness Record holder for the largest circumference of horns of any animal in the world!! His horn circumference is 38" around and 7 feet 6 inches tip to tip!! Wow! It was really cool to see! They have lots of other animals there, too. It was a fun day.

We, also, took the kids out on the boat while we were in Arkansas - they had a great time. We plan on going to Arkansas one more time this summer - it's a LONG drive but it's worth it!

Enjoy the pictures!
