Description

Crossing the Driftless: A Canoe Trip Through a Midwestern LandscapeThe Driftless Area is the land the glaciers missed, an ancient landscape of bluffs, ridgetops, and steep valleys that long ago was a seabed. Covering much of southwestern Wisconsin, its contours were deeply carved from bedrock, not by ice but by many rivers. Crossing the Driftless is both a traveler's tale and an exploration of this dramatic environment, following the streams of geologic and human history. Lynne Diebel and her husband, Bob, crossed

The Driftless Area is the land the glaciers missed, an ancient landscape of bluffs, ridgetops, and steep valleys that long ago was a seabed. Covering much of southwestern Wisconsin, its contours were deeply carved from bedrock, not by ice but by many rivers.
Crossing the Driftless is both a traveler's tale and an exploration of this dramatic environment, following the streams of geologic and human history. Lynne Diebel and her husband, Bob, crossed the Driftless Area by canoe, journeying 359 river miles (and six Mississippi River locks and five portages) from Faribault, Minnesota, where her family has a summer home on Cedar Lake, to their Wisconsin home in Stoughton, one block from the Yahara River. Traveling by river and portage, they paddled downstream on the Cannon and Mississippi rivers and upstream on the Wisconsin River, in the tradition of voyageurs. Lynne tells the story of their trip, but also the stories of the rivers they canoed and the many tributaries whose confluences they passed.

The glow is gorgeous and not over the top
Color: 100ml #03-Bronze Gold
If you want that golden hour shimmer without looking like a disco ball, this body oil is it. I got it for a beach trip and ended up using it almost every day since. It gives your skin the prettiest bronzy glow with just enough sparkle to catch the light without feeling glittery or sticky. It blends in super smoothly and actually makes my skin look healthier. I’ve used it on my collarbones, shoulders, and even mixed a tiny bit into my foundation when I want that sun-kissed look. The scent is light and pretty too, not overpowering at all. A little goes a long way, so the bottle lasts. Plus it doesn’t transfer all over my clothes, which is a major win. If you love that radiant summer look or want to fake a tan without streaks, you’ll love this. Would totally buy again. Feels like a mini vacation in a bottle.

Smelly but nice
Color: 100ml #01-Pearl White
The product is very beautiful but has an odd smell to it. I can really only describe it as a “Germ-X” smell, but I believe perfume can cover this well.

Glow Up Must-Have!
Color: 100ml #04-Golden Brown
This body shimmer oil is EVERYTHING! I need products that make an impact with zero fuss, and this delivers. The glow it gives? Chef’s kiss. It’s like walking around with a soft-focus filter on my skin – radiant, sun-kissed, and oh-so-hydrated. ✨ The texture is light and silky, no greasy residue, and it absorbs quickly, so I’m not standing around waiting for it to dry. Perfect for a quick swipe-and-go before heading out. Plus, it pairs beautifully with my fave foundation for a subtle gleam on my face. Bonus points for how moisturizing it is – my skin feels SO soft! Whether I’m running errands or heading to a rooftop party, this is my secret weapon for that effortless glow. Don’t walk, RUN to add this to your cart!
