Redwing and Jeanzb1 started me thinking............
What about Kate Smith's "When The Moon Comes Over The Mountain?" How wonderful it is for all of us to see that huge moon over our wonderful lake each summer.
And the mountains ARE PURPLE IN WINTER. I never understood the line, "For purple mountains' majesty" until I saw purple mountains out beyond the white snow on the lake. There were no mountains to see from the rental of my youth. But here........they are so magestic.
And who can forget the call of the loons? For some reason two swam right into shore and one almost walked in the sand this year. Never had that happen before this summer.
And the wonderful bald eagle nest on Blueberry, and then one eagle on the porch roof and another time one on the crab grass. Their wing spread is HUGE. When an eagle flies off, it almost looks like a small plane.
Been coming to the lake since I was a small child and it never ceases to amaze, comfort, inspire and delight me.
