Favorite Lifestyle

A spacious cottage by the beautiful lake,
Place where a boyfriend and girlfriend could live together.

Get up in the morning and see the beautiful sunrise each day,
Breakfast on the terrace where you have an overview of the cottage country.

A swim in the supervised lake,
Picnic lunch with sandwiches, potato salad and refreshments.

Romantic walks along the beach with your chosen companion,
Watching the sunset each evening together.

Cruising in a yacht or motorboat, boating in a canoe or row boat,
The fresh breeze caressing your face, learning to steer the ship.

Talking to the neighbors and making friends,
Cooking marsh mellows over the campfire,

Cooking hamburgers with relish, mustard and onions,and buns,
A lifestyle worth remembering.

As a retiree you could stay there forever,
Happiness at your favorite cottage paradise with God's permission..
