It is a Tuesday in mid October. All the families and their children have gone back to the city.
Mosquito season is over. Not a single breath of wind disturbs the leaves that will soon blanket the woods and meadows.
The only human stirring along the edge of the little lake is me! I capture the Peace and Tranquility with my camera, then, I do what the Grandchildren would expect me to do. I throw rocks in the water.
Another gorgeous picture by Margie ♡ I love it…

Margie, I started adding an English text to my articles. Hope it helps 😉

Hi Madman – Now I’ll be able to read the text besides admiring the photos! I can’t help but understand a certain amount of French because all Canadian product packaging has to be labeled in French and English. But I didn’t learn the French language in school – the French component of our country lives 2900 kilometers away!

I have forwarded your blog to two Canadian friends and they are enjoying reading your posts now. Yes, he would love to splash and romp in your lake but then it wouldn’t be peaceful anymore, would it?

Yes, Ruth, it wouldn’t be so peaceful any more, but I’m sure it would be fun.

Hi,
I love photos that show the reflections of nature in the water, they always look magnificent, and your photo shows these reflections brilliantly, very nice.
Who can resist trying to skim stones across the water, I’m sure it is built into our DNA. 🙂

It finally snowed here. Just a bit and i found I was so disappointed when it melted by noon. It’s nice to have a change in the weather. So I found this photo a nice pause in my day. In the midst of a still dark winter, I was ready for crickets and lakes.

Hi Barb – I think I’d like to live some place where the snow melts by noon! No, maybe I’d like to live someplace where it doesn’t snow. In all honesty, I’d miss the change in the seasons, though!
