About Us
Hello, I want to thank you for taking the time to review my site. I'm extending a personal invitation to visit Okeechobee County, Florida and the surrounding area. In today's fast paced high-tech society, aka "The Rat Race", accompanied by our challenging economy, stress levels are higher than ever, and we all know STRESS KILLS! I'm a United States Army combat veteran, accompanied by 30 years of fast paced high stress lifestyle. I developed premature heart disease and almost died. I desperately needed a stress reliever in my life. I have always had a passion for the great outdoors. However, I had lost touch with it competing in the rat race in Broward County. Since I love the outdoors, I decided one day to head west in Florida and see what may be out there waiting to be found.
It was here that I came to a place called Okeechobee. While driving around in the country, I found what everyone there calls the "Prairie". This is now what I call my secret hideaway that has rejuvenated my soul and physiology as a human being. This is the place where you can experience her majesties, the almighty Mother Nature’s life force stronger than anywhere else on earth.
Life underneath the canopy of my great oak hammock is one of the most unique and beautiful spots I have ever seen. It will invigorate the human spirit and soothe the soul. While tapping back into Mother Nature’s healing power, getting up with the sunrise, I come here to enjoy real life on nature's terms. Sunrise illuminating brilliant orange colors, the chirping of the birds and the crows of my roosters is soothing and healing to the soul and spirit. We must not forget we are all mammals (sophisticated) yet we are still a piece of Mother Nature and her great life force. The more we can embrace her, understand and reconnect to her, the stronger we become as a living human being. You can channel her positive energy in many ways.
