Download or read book A Walk Around Spring Lake written by Robert Epstein and published by . This book was released on 2012-05 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Almost everyone has a favorite creek or lake for hiking, kayaking, or contemplation. There is something soothing, animating, inspiring about great bodies of water. From a certain angle, lakes and ponds seem to have personalities of their own; at the very least, each has character. In this collection of haiku, Spring Lake--as well as its denizens and visitors--comes alive for Robert Epstein as did Walden Pond for Henry D. Thoreau, to whom this book is dedicated. Around the Lake are young mothers planning their daughters' dance careers; dog walkers and joggers galore; even an old man whose life ends peacefully one December afternoon. In the right frame of mind, you too may find yourself at home on a park bench, gazing dreamily into a lake that the author of Walden called the earth's eye-a window through which the soul of the world, as well as one's own, may be revealed.
Download or read book Spring Lake written by Howard B. Pate and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spring Lake, North Carolina, was incorporated on April 9, 1951, with an estimated population of 2,500; however, the area had been settled by the Scottish long before. Spring Lake was named in 1923 for a spring fed lake, which probably formed when the railroad was built about 1860. The community grew slowly until World War II. At its incorporation, the town selected the post office on Main Street as the center of town. The town limits extended only eight-tenths of a mile from its center, but increased rapidly as nearby Fort Bragg was built up. Today, Spring Lake remains a quaint town of 8,000, with its close ties to nearby Fort Bragg and Pope Air Force Base recognized in the town motto, Unity for Prosperity.

This is a great read for young people or anyone who enjoys novels about virtue, heroism, and faith.” - Everett Fritz, Catholic Speaker and Author, Founder of Andrew Ministries. “A beautiful story, set in a quiet Jersey Shore community, that reveals how young people see and respond in today’s world. We experience their growth through the lens of wonder and discovery.

The reader will be immersed in the Church’s beauty while being formed by its teachings.
