We have spent one weekend up north - and this is the year we are trying to do it more! So we have a 4-5 day weekend at the end of the month and planning 2 either long weekends or weeks in August and Sept...
I took a few pictures trying to capture some of the sounds, feelings and sights that I love at the lake - although most of them are not lake this time but the woods...
Started out by the lake - it was cool but kids played in the water and on the docks anyway.
Walking up the road behind our condos is a mixture of everything - views of the lake, tall evergreen trees, cottonwoods whose leaves make the lovely sound in the wind, white trees, old cabin, beautiful luxury lake homes, wild flowers, untouched woods....
Looking back at the lake from the road...
shimmering, noisy cottonwoods, I love the sound in the wind and the contrast with the blue sky
Birch trees grow in groups of several ...
but they don't live long and there are always picturesque birch logs lying on the ground
an old lake cabin across the road from
a gorgeous lake home... I keep thinking about winning the lottery and buying one of these
Woods are lovely, dark and deep... can't help but think of this poem even with the dappled sunshine coming through...
Last tree picture - the majestic evergreens that are truly awesome - they inspire awe...
and back to the lake
I did this walk every morning and afternoon with the dog.
