The colors and beauty of a perfect late summer get away.  Time was finally found at the end of September to get away for a few days camping and fishing.  We were blessed with the most amazing weather.  Everyone on the trip kept saying no day could have been more perfect and then the next was even better.  So I share a small glimpse of our perfect days camping at a Summers end..

The fall colors were just starting to come out.

The sparkles on the lake were glittering most of the time. 

Relaxing was the mode of the day except when chasing this dragon fly.

Our friends came back empty handed from fishing.

My hubby managed to be luckier.

One could easily sit on the dock and stare out at this view all day.

I could feel the energy being drawn into the V of the valley

and spreading across the surface of the water.

We went one day with ATV's and explored nearby lakes and trails.

Always hungry at the end of the day a hearty meal was prepared.

We were all camped on the waters edge at this forestry campsite

that is free and no one was there most days.

My mind was an Island forever surround by water

I could just sit and gaze

feeling the liquid emotions brushing up against me.

Isolated from the worries of the rest of the world,

but never forgotten as I could not float or drift while

anchored to this earth by Gods will.

Leaving  our oasis of water we were blessed with

a vision of the open country side on our way home.

Well that certainly brings an end to Summer here as the weather made a complete change after a few days of returning from our perfect weather campout.  We have already had snow sputters mixed in some rain and a hard killer frost, which is causing me to panic as I always do this time of the year trying to get work done in the garden and everything put away outside before the ground freezes.

I have to also confess I have been spending some time at facebook with my family and old high school friends.  I only signed on about 1 month ago.  I have no phone here and rarely see any of my family so this has been so amazing for me to follow what they are up to and see all their new photos.  So I apologize for not visiting as often as I used too, but reconnecting with my family is very important right now. 

Spaces is a special place that has allowed me a chance to come out of isolation and share a little of who I am.  Many of my space friends here are all very special people who have created  a wonderful feeling of support and belonging.  I am touched by many of you very deeply.   It has just been over  1 year since I arrived here and have felt nothing but love and support flow through here.  So I just wanted to say Thank you all for being the wonderful people you are.

Update on Wildflower she is still hiding in the bedroom of my friend.  She is getting brushed daily and now has her beautiful coat back.  She seems to be terrified of my friends cat and doesn’t want to come out.  There were probably many cats she had fights with while trying to survive and now doesn’t even want to see one.  So for now my friend is being very patient and just letting her live in her room. 

So to Everyone changing Seasons

Good Morning……..    Good Afternoon……..      Good Night……..

Whatever it is to you…..
