Crisp Autumn Morning

November 7, 2009 · 3 Comments

I know sometimes I complain about having to do our morning dog walks….all I want is a little quite time and have my coffee.  It’s hard to have quite time with 3 pups anxious for their walk.  Have to say this morning was an exceptional morning with the steam coming off the lake.  And now I can have that enjoyable cup of coffee….everyone is sleeping. :-)

Spring is around the corner.

Every March we have scullers come and practice here at the lake and a long with the Yellow Bells we know that spring is right around the corner.

Are you seeing signs of spring?

Gorgeous day on the island

Can’t believe we had a 40 degree weather change in 24 hours. I torched today with the doors open, played outside with Henry in a t-shirt and Ruby took a walk. While I was at the torch I noticed that it had gotten quiet no bird chatter. I looked around at my beading table Ruby’s favorite place to go when I’m not watching, but she was no where to be found in the studio. Ruby figured it was a nice day and she went for a walk she was outside playing in the gravel. (Not to worry she doesn’t fly, well not too often that’s another story.)

Fireboat on Lake Lure

January 27, 2009 · 3 Comments

WOW that is a lot of water coming from the fireboat. It was a nice day and the fireman where out on the lake, I guess making sure everything was working correctly.

Soon the mountains will be green, spring will be here and everybody will return to Lake Lure.

The lake was like a mirror this morning.

We who live at Lake Lure full time enjoy the quiet after the holidays when everyone returns to their real jobs and lives.  Lake Lure, NC is a wonderful resort town nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
