Life on a lake is quite interesting. This morning the sunrise was absolutely amazing. The colors, though not the turquoise that I am used to in the mountains, were amazing. I love how the light plays with the water. Olive and I walk around the docks, she sniffs to her hearts content, and I watch the water move and listen to the fish jumping. The first time I heard the splash it took me a bit by surprise. I could not find the rings of water that go along with the jumping fish...so I could not quite figure out what was going on. I had to really watch and strain to find this noise. Finally a fish saved me - and gave a little jump! Whew!

It is a sleepy existence here. I love it. We get up and go for a walk, drink our tea, and listen to the wonderful sounds. This past evening a cloud lazily drifted from one side of the lake to the front of the house...one minute you could see across the lake, the next, you had a cloud! Absolutely gorgeous! The town home is tucked away so unexpectedly. You can still see the highway, hear the cars, but I had no idea these guys were here. I have so enjoyed sitting on the deck and watching the world go by!
