Escapist fantasies usually involve the open road, but Bernd Heinrich's dream was to focus on the riches of one small place--a few green acres along Alder Brook just east of the Presidential Mountains. The year begins as he settles into a cabin with no running water and no electricity, built of hand-cut logs he dragged out of the woods with a team of oxen. There, alone except for his pet raven, Jack, he rediscovers the meaning of peace and quiet and harmony with nature--of days spent not filling out forms, but tracking deer, or listening to the sound of a moth's wings.Throughout this year when "the subtle matters and the spectacular distracts," Heinrich brings us back to the drama in small things, when life is lived consciously. His story is that of a man rediscovering what it means to be alive.Binding Type: Paperback

Sunscreen is great, I would t recommend the chapstick
Style: Original
Sun Bum is hands down the best sunscreen I’ve ever used. It smells incredible, like a tropical vacation with that perfect coconut scent. It goes on smoothly, doesn’t leave you feeling sticky or greasy, and actually works! As long as I reapply every few hours, I don’t get burned, which is more than I can say for most other sunscreens I’ve tried.
The face stick is good, goes on easily, but is a little greasy feeling.
I do not like the chapstick, I can’t keep the taste of it out of my mouth and I feel like you have to put it on again and again.

Absolutely love this!
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Best sunblock I’ve ever purchased! I use it mostly for my toddler and the roll on is so easy to apply even when she’s wiggly. It does leave a slight white residue in general (it’s mineral so it usually will) or if it doesn’t get rubbed on all the way but way better than most other mineral sunscreens I’ve used before. Didn’t feel like she looked like a ghost which was a plus! I use plenty of mineral ones because we have pale skin and burn easily. Felt like this has very good sun protection. Used it in Hawaii and didn’t get any sunburn at all as long as we used it as directed. The roll on is my favorite since it glides so well. I’ve used other roll on ones that don’t cooperate and leave clumps or you have to manually roll the ball to get anything out. This one is my favorite and I will keep buying this one forever!

Easy peasy!
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Babybun is a healthier option for sunscreen! We use it for our little and the spray for ourseves. This roll on is so convenient! No breathing in the spray for the kids and less struggle. Just a couple quick swipes, rub it in and good to go! Plus it smells like bananas, the kids think its funny with the monkey logo so it has become a game when getting sun ready, winner winner!
