Washing The World Away..

I think this sculpture in a local park says it all.

On Monday my friend and I walked down to the water and had lunch and waded around a bit. It was hot and muggy. We had our own private little beach it was perfect. This is Squam lake (where on Golden pond was filmed)

This is a blue heron not a good picture but not that afraid of us either.

We have had some very bad storms first thunder and lighting very close it seemed and then rain so bad husband had to pull over we could not see.

Because my brother from Mississippi could not come to New England this year I sent him some lobsters and clams he sent me a case of wine! We tried the first one tonight it was very good a California wine.

With the college back the news here just does not seem to be getting better. The kids are gathering and getting letters from the college to quarantine for 14 days. They have 9 cases and the college just started classes last week sigh....And because they count these cases in their home town we might not know if I didn't have a friend at the college.

So I am trying to do cheer myself up. The farm stand on the way home had these 7 for 5.00 deal!

I also figured out how to made a fancy coffee. sooo good

A little bit of heavy or 1/2 and 1/2 cream a 1/2 tsp of any spice of your choice, 1 tsp of brown sugar. In the microwave for a minute. wrap a towel around it and put the cover on and shake! Pour into your 3/4 cup of coffee don't forget to spoon the foam in ahhh soo good and works great with pumpkin spice. And it costs only pennies I use this as my mid morning pick me up.

We kept hearing about this new boardwalk trail so early Sunday we headed off. (handsome husband)

Such a pretty walk and very peaceful we were early going out so not many people coming back was different.

It was very windy and the rustling of the cat tails was lovely. 

And some of the lilies were still in bloom.

This tree branch grew like a piece of rope very interesting.

And did this tree get hit by lighting? it looks like burn marks on it.

After we got in town we kept walking over to the fancy hotel on the lake Winnipesaukee. We sat in the lawn chairs like we were meant to be there and watched a couple of kayakers struggle with the wind on the lake.

As you can see there were white caps and the wind was blowing them away from shore. Just glad it was not me.

On the way back we saw this sculpture the left side is a mirror. Interesting not sure what it means or represents.

Each night when I get home from work I take my clothes off by the washer grab a bathrobe and head for the shower. While I am not sure if it is needed, it does give me a mental boost in the end. I feel like I 

have left all the issues and dirt behind.  

I will close with this I hope you are all well and finding ways to brighten your day.

Have a wonderful week!
