Farmers market favorite! Sweet black cherries!

Crafternoon with Katie making scarves!


On my walk

Another sunset. I know they look all the same but I can tell the difference!


A little rain means time to talk by the fire!

Hi Mary! Good to see you!

Nothing like a good fire!
Back soon with more postcards from the lake!

  4. It looks like peaceful, slow living at the lake. We cozy by the fire, too. Today it's raining here, but I don't have as many visitors as you!

  8. This is a wonderful postcard, although that fire made me pause. Is it actually cool enough for a fire, or do you have the air conditioning turned on? It's been so hot here that everything seems ready to spontaneously combust. If you have cool, I envy you!

  12. Mmm... Cherries!

    I'm glad you're enjoying your Summer.

    I've always believed that no sunrise, or sunset, or anything else in nature, is completely identical. That's why I happily post photos of the same view out of our window of the ocean... I believe every one is different, even on days when the weather is the same, if that makes sense.

  13. What wonderful remembrances of a special summer. Sitting by the fire with special friends and relatives is priceless! Sunsets, flowers, crafts, loved the sign (Yes, for books). The cherries, yummo! And the shop looks like one I would love too.

  14. Beautiful photos! That sunset photos is gorgeous! And pass me some cherries - those look amazing! They don't grow in this region so I am envious of people who live in regions where they grow as that is one of my favorite fruits! The fires all look so cozy, too!

  18. Your summer posts are exquisite, Jeanie! I know what you mean, although we see flowers and yes, sunset everyday, they are always different every time. Love that flowery window, and the fireplace. Glad you're enjoying yourself. Your Joie de Vie is contagious. ;)

  20. Oh, my it looks absolutely idyllic! Those pretty flowers - and the cherries- and the sociable circle around the fire... and the fire itself. So much atmosphere! I hope you continue to enjoy your lovely holiday, Jeanie. Wish I could join you! :D
