Where Did It Go??

Have you seen it?? Where did it go?? IS it over by you??? If so, send it back!!! I think SUMMER has left!!!! NOOOOOOO!!!! So it rained ALL night, nothing wrong with that, the sound was very soothing and it was nice and cool out. Both of us slept like babies. Not hot, not stuffy, no humidity. It was pretty awesome. This is my favorite time of year (I am calling it Fall already) - In August, what? Usually August is full of sweat and humidity and 90 to 100 degree weather and sunburns and everything. Nope not here. Highs in the 70's lately during the day, down in the 50's at night. It is kind of awesome.

The leaves are changing already. Yes that was sooner than I expected. I will have to quick take pictures of the fall colors (maybe I can convince honey to take me for a nice fall colors drive when they all start turning) before it all turns white. NOT looking forward to that. I do need my Yooper hats before winter. I am not a Yooper but I will blend in nicely :-)

The Lake was pretty awake yesterday morning, crashing up against the rocks, wind blowing. She was quite vocal. I had an hour to kill before work so I sat by Rip Tide Rock and read my book (on my phone of course). My senses come alive when I am at the lake. The sounds of the Lake, whether it is waves crashing madly against the shoreline or calm serene waters and seagulls harping overhead.....either way....the sounds are soothing. The smell is reassuring that I am in the right place and the feeling of it, well, it is invigorating. And the taste....better than bottled water. I tasted it out at Black Rocks on a day when the lake was crystal clear and super cold. (ok that's any day right?) - and ya it was cold. I took some home in a bottle and let Tonys son taste it before I told him where it was from, he was amazed. I have some at home in a little bottle, next to a little piece of driftwood. :-)

Ok back to work. Anyhow, if you see summer, send it back will ya? I am not quite ready for the Yooper winter yet....
