Walking Seasonal Roads
Author: Mary A. HoodPublisher: Syracuse University Press
ISBN: 0815651740
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
Seasonal roads are defined as one-lane dirt roads not maintained during the winter. They function as connectors linking farmers to their fields, neighbors to neighbors, or two more well-traveled roads to each other. Some access hunting lands and recreational areas. Some pass by cemeteries, allowing people to visit and honor their dead. They can be abandoned as people move and towns fade. In every incarnation, the seasonal road touches the land in a gentler way than do other roads. Having traveled nearly every seasonal road in Steuben County, New York, Hood finds they provide the ideal vantage to contemplate the meaning of place, offering intimate contact with plant and wildlife and the beauty of a rural landscape. Each road reveals how our land is used, how our land is protected, and how environmental factors have impacted the land. As a literary naturalist, Hood reflects on endangered species and invasive species, as well as on issues of conservation and sustainability. From state forests to potato fields, from development along Keuka Lake to vineyards, from old family cemeteries to logging sites, Walking Seasonal Roads is a celebration and an honoring of the rural and the regionalism of place, illustrating the ways we connect to our home and to each other.
Shunpiking

Pages : 0
Book Description
In the 1800s, the term shunpikers was coined for drivers who avoid toll roads at all cost, going out of their way, sometimes many miles, to avoid paying a small fee. The ironic nature of shunpiking is that it usually costs the driver more in time and money than the toll would have. Sometimes, the driver winds up lost and never even arrives at their desired destination. In Shunpiking: No Shortcuts to God, Reno Omokri says many believers want the blessings of God without paying the "toll." When God's children accept the price of applying biblical principles to their lives, they avoid the headaches and heartaches that come with trying to find their own way. Reno Omokri has enjoyed a long career in politics in Nigeria, where he now handles media relations for the president. In the same vein as CS Lewis, Shunpiking: No Shortcuts to God is a series of essays and lessons to all believers on applying biblical principles to our lives. At one time or another, all Christians struggle with veering off the path, leading lives of missed opportunities. Omokri shows you how to get back on the road God set before you, to attain the blessings He promised.
