Houses, some weathered with age and others freshly painted, dot the landscape, their porches often occupied by residents watching the slow procession of days. A sense of patient endurance seems to settle over Chippewa Lake, a quiet understanding of the seasons and the land's generous, yet sometimes demanding, nature.
