Lake Chelan National Recreation Area....

Lake Chelan

...Washington, northeast of Seattle, in the North Cascades,
between high mountains, fir forests, your mind it raids;
the peaceful quiet, a whole different world,
it'll calm you down, if your mind is whirled.

Fishing, hiking and the canoe set the pace,
you can have a vacation from the big rat race;
it's quiet, so quiet in fact, it plays with the mind,
just let it sink in, relax and unwind.
