Perfect Friday.......

As we turned onto the cottage road last Friday...
I just knew it was going to be a beautiful day!!
I have never seen this Horse and rider before...
And I tried to get a few pictures as we drove by!
When we pulled into the driveway...
I grabbed my camera...
Headed to the road...to wait for him to pass by...
While waiting...I thought...look at that cottage!!
How cute is she??
So...I snapped a few from the street!!
But...to my dismay...the rider must have turned around...:o(
Never passed the cottage...
Oh well...
This did not get me down...what a glorious day ahead of me!!
 

We set the chairs up...behind the beach deck...as there was a fierce East wind!!
We ate lunch there...sheltered from the wind...
No grass cutting...
Just...
Relaxation!!
I captured a shot from the bedroom...
How beautiful is that??!! {except for the dirty windows!!}

 

This sign hangs on the sunporch...

A gift from daughter Lissa and SIL Jeff...

Love it there!!

I zoomed in for a closeup! 

They gave us 3 signs so far...

They all look great!!

Time for a walkabout...

And a beach visit...

Loved seeing this Jay...

Even tho' our Jays lost that night  :o(

Thanks for a great Season!!

Boyfriend also loves Notre Dame football!!
Must be the IRISH in him!!
 

While dinner was in the oven...
And the WIND died down...YAHOO!!
My boyfriend got busy, and set up the fire pit, on the beach deck...
I got the kindling...and away we went!!
The Moon was very bright in the South east that night...
It looks fabulous when reflecting off the lake!!
 

My boyfriend thoguht that we should have a picture of me...
In my VERY old plaid fleece jacket...hahaha!
So glad I did not donate this!!
Comes in handy..for those chilly evenings...
And...matched with one of my cowls...very toasty indeed!!
Notice...no socks!!
And...my thrifty shoes!!

See the Moon up there??
 

When we went inside...I got to work on an indoor fire...
I just love spending the evening this way...
On the couch...
Listening to music...
And...even...a dance or two ♥️
 

YIKES!!!
This is what we woke up to!!
Spent a leisurely time inside...putzing around...had a nice breakfast...
Headed home around 2pm...as we were attending an engagement party...
For my nephew Liam...and his fiancee Aimee!!
All my kids were there as well...and saw a few friends that I had not seen for  a while...had a really nice time!! Even a live band...and MORE dancing!!
 

Hope you all had a great weekend...and are enjoying this Sunny day!!
We are expecting torrential rains on Wednesday...
Remnants from PATRICIA...
And very high winds!!
