I spent the weekend at the House outside town. Saturday was the hottest day of the summer, 31°C in the shadow before thunder and rain brought release in the late afternoon.
Sunday morning was almost “chilly” in comparison – when I went for an early walk down by the lake I wore a cardigan over a long-sleeved shirt!
There were signs of sudden departures from the beach the afternoon before (the rain started around 3:30 pm)
Linking to Ruby Tuesday Too
Beautiful pictures. I could deal with being there, though not on the boat. I get seasick super-easy.
ReplyDeleteSo do I... I prefer standing on firm ground looking out over the lake/sea rather than being out on (or in) the water!
Deletea lovely place to visit, and that is really hot for you...i like the stump with the red rake on it...
ReplyDeleteI love the first picture the best, with all the beautiful blues! I love how you show the vestiges of where the people had been, makes it looks like a ghost beach.
ReplyDeleteThe little bits of red in each photo make them charming.

The coulour red does have a tendency to stand out in most contexts! :)
DeleteIt is very picturesque....I like a good thunder storm.
ReplyDeleteIt has been a grand summer so far.
Where I live is known to be the rainiest city in Sweden, but this summer we've been very far from living up to the reputation!
DeleteIt's good to think of you enjoying the countryside and, importantly in my mind, the lakeside, as a change from the city.
ReplyDeleteI like the beach best when it's empty and quiet, Graham. Something we have in common, I think ;)
