Half Crown Island, Quebec, Canada
January 7, 2011
In the far north country of Quebec,
where the evergreens stretch tall and crystal clear waters shimmer beneath a glorious blue sky, a private paradise awaits.
Here, far from the hustle and bustle of civilization,
the days are measured by glorious sunrises and breathtaking sunsets, and the only alarm is the haunting call of the loon.
“Traffic” takes the form of boats crafted of cedar and history, fern-filled forests beckon to hikers in search of beauty and solitude, and fish stories really do come true.
More than a private resort, this enchanted locale is family and friends, and most of all, home.
