Fall is not nearly over. As a matter of fact, summer may not even be over!
We reached about 82 degrees today (28C) so we loaded up the kayaks and headed to a small lake nearby. What a beautiful day. We saw several people walking their dogs, a few bicyclists, 2 stand-up paddle boarders, several fishermen, and even a couple of families with small children playing in the sand.
I thought it was odd that we could hear the traffic noise from a nearby interstate highway, but then I realized we don’t normally hear it because the beach is normally crowded with shouting laughing children.
Today was just quiet and peaceful. And a little sad knowing that it was the last paddle of the season. We return to more seasonal temperatures over the next couple of days, and the kayaks will be in storage by the end of the week.
On the stitching front, I’ve been working on my Charming Stars, and should have some blocks to show by tomorrow.
Hope you’re enjoying whatever season you’re in! Sunny
Such beautiful weather at the end of October. We are expecting a warm day tomorrow. Beautiful photos!
ReplyDeleteDon't you just love these unexpected warm days? We climbed about 40 degrees yesterday, it was just beautiful. But it might snow on Friday, lol. Lovely pics, hon!

ReplyDeleteHi Sunny
ReplyDeletewe have been getting some lovely Spring weather but the last few days have gone back to winter, windy and chilly. Your photos look so pretty, I love the colour of the leaves.
Beautiful Fall photos! I am sorry your kayaking is over for the year. You always go to such wonderful places.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry that your kayaking time is over for the year. I definitely would like to give kayaking a try. It looks like so much fun. They rent kayaks in Hilton Head ... to be used in the lagoons ... but there are crocs in those lagoons, and I'm not interested in company! ha!
ReplyDeleteIt got into the lower 80's here this weekend ... and the low Friday night will be in the 20's. I think last weekend was summer's last hurrah. ;-)
I can't wait to see your Charming Stars blocks.
What lovely photographs! This is my first fall...and I am amazed at all the beautiful colours of fall.
ReplyDeleteOh I can't wait to see how the stars look in the shirt fabric!
ReplyDeleteIt looks so calm and peaceful. I can see why you would love to see the season last a little longer.
ReplyDeleteGlad you got in one last great kayaking tour--
ReplyDeleteit is suppose to snow here on the week end--maybe even Friday night!!!
