Check it out: The Expect a Miracle path is back along Geneva Lake

  • Jul 13, 2022

After a 5-year hiatus, the Expect a Miracle path is back along the Geneva Lake shore path with inspirational quotes written on a fence lining the path. Carolyn Gable, the founder of the Expect a Miracle Foundation and president and CEO of New Age Transportation is the woman behind the inspirational path.

She previously had a home along the path between Downtown Lake Geneva and Stone Manor where walkers could come and read the quotes. But after she moved, the quotes were painted over. Now the quotes have returned to a new area along the path between Big Foot Beach and Linn Pier, just a few houses down the path from the Geneva Inn. There is also a guest book that visitors can sign and a bell to ring. The bell reads, “Ring the bell, expect a miracle.”

“What would you do if you knew, you couldn’t fail?” and “to bring anything into your life, imagine it is already there” and “the best way to create the future is to create it.”

Success doesn't go to you

Success doesn't go to you

“Success doesn’t come to you. You go to it,” and “A journey of a thousand miles begins with one single step,” and “In the end, everything will be okay. If it’s not okay, it’s not the end.” Those are some of the messages written the Expect a Miracle Path between Big Foot Beach and Linn Pier.
