Friday...

Friday...Nasturtium..

Friday...Inukshuks...

Friday...Seagull bracing the high winds and waves...until he finally takes off...and in flight

Saturday morning...from the bedroom window...winds are back...and rain



Sunday morning...breakfast with the seagulls on the beach deck...

Hope you all had a great day...

Lousy weather here...now it is dark...cloudy and humid...

  2. You have a whole collection of little inuksuk's there now. I wonder how they will hold up with the weather, it will be interesting to see how long they last! xx

  3. You are a busy bee! . . . obviously you get a buzz from blogging . . . see you started in 2011
    I can see exactly why you love the cottage and boy . . . . what a variety of weather you get and how strong the wind must be to lift those heavy waves - quite remarkable. What a wonderful view from the bedroom window and that's the life on Friday having lunch on the sun porch. Bet it was nice. When did you get the cottage?

    Cheers ~ Eddie

    1. Hi Eddie....
      The weather on the Great Lakes changes every 5 minutes!
      We enjoyed our dinner on the sunporch....crispy chicken thighs! Yummy!
      We have had the cottage for 17 years this September....
      Doesn't seem that long!

  7. Love the photo of the seagull taking off. That's a great one. I always get such a kick out of them. I don't have one red tomato yet from my potted plants. You have quite the harvest there. Is there anything better than home-grown veggies. I hope your feeling much better now. I just read your other posts. It's raining here right now, a down-pour really, and tomorrow calls for the same. I don't mind rain at night as long as the day is bright. Hope you enjoyed your dinner out. I think I'm ready for that, too. Take care, Linda. Hugs, Deb

  8. Hi Deb...
    Just kinda feeling blue...if that makes any sense....
    No ripe tomatoes? Strange....
    I have the same feeling about rain...it can rain every night....but sunny in the day...
    Not really any rain here....seems to be below and above us......geesh!
    Enjoy your evening...

  9. Oops - at first I missed the typing between photos - so tiny! Had to get me double-readers out! Great photos. I don't think I would ever stop looking at the water. It is stunning and, of course, changes moment by moment. You capture its moods so well.
    Beautiful photo of you! So pretty. And I love the collection on the table - lovely lamp.
    Yup - kinda blue makes sense. I know how you feel. Sending you a hug. <3

    1. Sorry about the small print....I asked my peeps about it, and we all decided to keep it!
      The lamp belonged to my grand mother...heavy! I love it!
      Thanks for the hug♥️

  15. The waves look enormous and "crashing" as they say!! Ha! But as long as the sun is shining, I know it's spectacular. And I am so loving the pictures...you have an affinity with nature.

    Enjoy these lovely days!

  16. You have a super location there by the lake - how relaxing and beautiful, Linda. Love all the birds, flying in the sky and ducks, real and fake about the garden. Lovely.
