Last weekend we went down to the lake to put the docks in (that's a neighbor's dock to the left, above), but it ended up being rainy and windy and we ended up doing yard and indoor work instead. Thought I'd share some of the signs of spring there! The daffodils look cheery despite the drizzle...
And trees were beginning to blossom...
So gray...
Fishing poles are ready...
and the dock sections are piled high, ready to go in...
a firepit is ready to go...another is on the beach.
Perennials are emerging...
Finally the sun came out in the afternoon...
and the winds whipped up!
But we always seem to have a lovely sunset!
Our family has a great time there...can't wait to go back and start spending time on the water!
Until next time...
So lovely! Nice tosee those spring blooms!
ReplyDeleteLinda- We live on the Bay and absolutely love it. It reminds me a lot of your place. We quit putting our dock in about 3 years ago and gave it to our son (who boats now) and lives about 3 miles down the bay from us. I love this time of year...even the rainy days. xo Diana
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely environment! And spring looks like it has arrived. Hopefully the next time you visit the weather will be more cooperative!
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful! Love seeing spring in bloom, and by the water is even more perfect!
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day!

Linda, this looks like a wonderful place to relax and enjoy in the summer. I hope we get the warm temps back soon.
ReplyDeleteI loved your photos.... I love this time of year when everything is coming alive again and is so fresh.... oh and it all looks so much better with the sun!!!
ReplyDeleteAny day is a good day at the beach! What a great place to enjoy the family... t.xoxox
ReplyDeleteThat sunset is splendid. I would never leave if I could help it.
ReplyDeleteThat looks so relaxing. I wouldn't have any idea how to put a dock in though. Do you have to get wet to do it?
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a lovely place to spend the summer months! I can hardly wait to get our kayaks out on the water, myself. Can you believe they're going to move up the fishing opener? It will be a longer lake season this year, and that's always a good thing. :@
ReplyDeleteThat sunset is amazing! All of your flowers are beautiful! Looks like a fun summer!

I don't know anything about putting docks in the water but is sound like a lot work. Silly me I thought they stayed out all year. But I am land locked so what do I know. It looked gorgeous and like a lot of fun.
ReplyDeleteIt sure looks pretty there. Hopefully, it gets warm again soon so you can enjoy it. Oh, and what's with the wind lately? Isn't it awful?
ReplyDeleteIs that a weeping cherry tree, Linda? It's just gorgeous! Looks like pretty rough water there, but such a pretty sunset. Even though I will dearly miss it out here on the Puget Sound, we are looking forward to life back on our lake in the midwest! Have a great night!
ReplyDeleteLooking good Linda! I bet you are excited to be spending more time there.
ReplyDeleteDeaR Linda, it looks so wonderful there by the seaside, and all so ready for your long beautiful dayes there,- your tree is amazingly beautiful, in bloom- and I would love to sit on that deck of yours.
ReplyDeleteHugs,Dorthe
We have been SO
ReplyDeletespoiled this year...
I was actually a bit
put out these last
few days because I
needed a jacket!!!
This is early April
in MN, so I am being
completely ridiculous : )
You are sure ready and
your lake looks great.
I love lakes in all weather,
maybe even more so
when it's inclement,
as it's so darn cozy!
See you soon...

You have beach and sunset view. Never sell! I would love to see interiors!
ReplyDeleteLovely. Is it windy there? Very windy in Oklahoma.
