True Meaning of Memorial Day

It is the VETERAN,
not the preacher,
who has given us freedom of religion.

It is the VETERAN,
not the reporter,
who has given us freedom of the press.

It is the VETERAN,
not the poet,
who has given us freedom of speech.

It is the VETERAN,
not the campus organizer,
who has given us freedom to assemble.


It is the VETERAN,
not the lawyer,
who has given us the right to a fair trial.

 

It is the VETERAN,
not the politician,
Who has given us the right to vote.

It is the VETERAN
who salutes the Flag,

Lake Harmony PA ~ Summer Watersports, Here I Come!

                                                                                   Ricks Mountain Homes ~ Lake Harmony

Originally known as Big Pond, Lake Harmony is a natural glacial lake with a dam. The two and a half mile long lake ( Approximately 125 acres) is privately owned by Lake Harmony Estates. Unlike Big Boulder Lake, power boats are allowed on Lake Harmony with plenty of boating, water skiing, and jet skiing.

Lake Harmony Estates has a boat dock and marina. There are tennis courts, beaches, and designated swimming areas. Although access to Lake Harmony is only through the Estates, there are plenty of short-term vacation rentals. Accommodations in the area range from condos to townhomes and single family houses.

The area in and around Lake Harmony, mainly speaking Split Rock, which shares the Lake with the Estates, is host to numerous events each year. Events such as The Wine Festival, Beer Festival (do you see a pattern here), Celtic Festival and more help round out this cozy area of the Pocono Mountains!

If this sounds like a place you might want to take a look at for that prestigious Second home or possibly even to live year round then I encourage you to Start Your Search for that Dream Pocono Home RIGHT HERE now for FREE!

I took this picture just after I got done walking our Big Dog Bumbles this morning. Bumbles loves jumping through and eating the snow while I enjoy the Absolute Peace and Quiet. The one good thing about everyones fear of snow here in the Pocono Mountains is that more and more drivers stay off the road. Rest assured if you go for a walk in the community where I live, Arrowhead Lakes, on a snowy morning, you will experience absolute peace and quiet. It is the most amazingly mind clearing activity. I even kept my snow blower in the garage this year so I can shovel by hand, all the while enjoying the stillness in this wonderful Pocono Lake Community.

It reminds me why we see so many winter renters just looking for that Zen like experience! Winter in the Poconos, complete with hefty amounts of the white fluffy stuff, our wonderful Pocono Rental Homes with blazing and roaring fireplaces inside offers the Endless Opportunities of Mind Clearing Peace and Absolute Stillness with Nature outside. Join the thousands every year who flock to the Poconos to Get Their Zen On! Book Your Zen Like Experience HERE!
