This issue of Laurel is all about America.
Just look past the features about the Fourth of July celebrations (even if not all of them
are on the Fourth of July).
Follow us, from the sublime to the supremely silly.
There’s the route in this month’s Outdoor column to the achingly beautiful Dixon Woods. Listen carefully to the silence and you’ll catch a whisper of Walt Whitman.
Or consider the joyous wackiness of this month’s Dive In. That’s right, you can sit (or bob peacefully) in a swimming pool and watch Disney’s “The Little Mermaid” in the company of an honest-to-goodness mermaid. Can you think of any other country in the world where that would be on the Calendar of Events?
See? Look for America throughout these pages!
Enjoy!
