No soundtrack needed; Solitude suffices.

If I just had a tail wind once, I might never come down to earth . . . :)

It seems like I'm always hearing Bob Seger singing "Against The Wind" . . .

Lol, I have “Trolls just wanna have fun” locked in my head because my 9, 6 and 3 year old won’t stop singing it.

Big fan of Alan Parsons Project.


I see the 60+ year old crowd is responding to this post.

Yeah, Parsons produce Dark Side if I am not mistaken. Big fan here. I was glad when they decided technology has come far enough they could go on the road.

I agree, just being still and listening to the natural sounds is the way for me. Inevitably I will get a song stuck in my head that goes round and round on the portages. Usually it's something I played on the long drive up.


If you are old enough, you will remember those long drives on vacation in the 1970's listening to the top 40 station in the car. They had a limited playlist so you would hear the same song maybe 3-4 times during an 8 hour drive. I still very clearly remember those songs today.


It's 1975. Picture a 1968 green Dodge station wagon with Mom and Dad in front and 6 kids (no seat belts) in back. The top has our luggage for the week covered with a tarp. We were low riding for sure! As we drive the Wisconsin highways in the early morning in anticipation of a cabin on a lake this is what we hear. :)

I'm Not In Love
