Happy Thursday everyone,
Hubby and I are thankful we live so close to the lake for our walks. The beautiful reservoir watershed is all around us. It was a pretty blue sky day, with just a little bit of clouds around. The clouds are looking pretty reflecting on the lake.
Relieve Covid stress....Go outside, Have fun, Enjoy life.
I love looking up at the sky through all these trees.
"Every day is a new beginning, take a deep breath and start again."
A different view of the reservoir.
I heard many different birds during our walk to the lake, we had brief sightings of the Hooded Warbler and possibly a White-eye Vireo. My photos of these birds were awful, I know. I am only including them in my mosaic so I have a record of my sightings on this walk.
The chicory grows along the fire road in places.
We take a narrow trail along the lake shore and in this pine forest.
"Today I will breathe deep and be thankful."
In a world you can be anything, be kind!
My wish today is my family and friends stay safe and healthy!
I am thankful hubby and I are remaining virus free, I hope everyone is safe and well.
Live simple and be happy! 😊 Take care, keep smiling!
Thank you Michelle for hosting Thankful Thursday.
Thank you to Yogi the host of Skywatch Friday

Hello Eileen,
ReplyDeleteYes, the nature is a fantasic place to be either it's in the wood or in the garden. Beautiful photos!
Have a nice day!
Thank you Marit!
DeleteYes, the woods or the garden are both great places to enjoy!
Have a great day!
Those walks through the woods will be good for your health both physically and mentally.
ReplyDeleteThanks David!

...that first image is spectacular!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Tom! Have a great day!
DeleteThat does resemble a W E Vireo, but the hooded wooded? Not sure on what you mean. Maybe a hooded oriole? Love the chicory blossoms. And the beautiful reservoir images. I'm thankful that I have you sharing your part of the world!
ReplyDeleteHello Anni,
DeleteLOL, wooded is a typo. I meant Hooded Warbler. Thanks for the visit and comment. Enjoy your day!
Que SHOW de fotos e vocês devem mesmo ser muito gratos por tudo isso viver! Adorei! bjs, chica
ReplyDeleteThank you Chica! Have a great day!
DeleteBeauty is all around, especially in nature. Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteThank you Barbara!
DeleteYes, there is so much beauty all around the world.
Have a great day!
Hi Eileen, I sure enjoyed this post. You know, "Thankful Thursday" makes for an excellent meme. As always, I enjoyed all your photos. That first view of the lake is just exceptional with the water like glass and the reflections. I wish I had a place nearby where I could get into the trees for a look skyward as in the second shot. Including shots in the mosaic that are just to remind of the walk is a great idea. Thank you for sharing your blog. Stay safe and healthy and have happy days ahead. Best regards from Seattle, John
ReplyDeleteHello John,
DeleteI think you have beautiful views from where you live, I always enjoy seeing your mountains and ships scenes. Thanks so much for the visit and comment. Take care and stay safe! Have a great day!

Thank you! Take care, enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteI am always so tempted to plant chicory in our yard, my favorite wildflower. So surprised when I went searching it out and a local nursery told me it was a weed. To some a weed, to another a beautiful flower. Your water pictures are all so soothing. And I love the view through the trees! Happy Thursday!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jean! Take care, enjoy your day!
DeleteA quiet place to walk safely, away from any virus, any crowd, is such a bonus, your water views are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHello Jean,
DeleteWe do enjoy being away from the crowds. Thank you! Take care, enjoy your day!
In troubled times there is nothing better than a walk in nature. Her beauty will amaze you each and every day.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your day, Eileen.
Thank you Bill! Take care, enjoy your day!
DeleteStarting every day fresh is the way to go.
ReplyDeleteA walk to get the body pumping works so well.
Thank you! Take care, enjoy your day!
DeleteRelieves stress...oh I so agree! I wish more of my neighbors would get out in nature instead of staying inside their houses all the time. It sure makes me happy to see a pretty wildflower or a butterfly...or a TREE! Love your photos!
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting Diane! Take care, enjoy your day!
