"Come Together" |
The lake house became part of our family recently and we named her "Coming Together" because it is a place where family and friends come together for all kinds of reasons. Getting to know each other better and getting closer to what really matters are two great reasons for the time we spend there. I was spending time with my sister last night and we were talking about all the funny things that have happened and great memories we have made since the lake house became our second home. I will be sharing those stories and photos with you as this blog unfolds. So stay tuned, be mindful of the many blessings you are given daily, practice gratitude for the little things in life because that is where the best memories come from. It's April 11 on lake Barkley has risen from its winter pool but is still not as full as it will be in front of the lake house. Spring is in full bloom even on the water as you can see by this beautiful sight.

Springtime on Lake Barkley |
These photos were taken from a boat on the water while fishing. I was so busy enjoying the beauty of spring emerging in such a glorious fashion that photos were the only thing I caught today. That is one of the best things about being on the lake so much. It changes every day in so many ways. The blooms you see here will be gone in a couple of weeks and the lake will look very different. I always feel blessed when I happen upon a sight like this knowing that it will be here for a short time and then be gone until next year.
So get out there now and see spring coming out in all of her glory because summer will be here before we know it.
That is beautifully written. It reminds me of fond childhood memories at the lake. It also makes me realize the importance of the next generation carrying on traditions of coming together as you so eloquently put in perspective. Great name by the way. Thank you very much. Chev
