| CATTAILS around the Lake 9/13/16 |
In my last post, click
HERE, I talked about one of my favorite things to do when we were on a little vacation at the Peaks of Otter in Virginia... That favorite thing was to walk around Abbott Lake both evenings we were there close to sunset, August 13 and 14. Today, I'll share some of the little things we saw while walking around the lake... Hope you enjoy the pictures. You can click on them for enlargements.

| Our Inn from the other side of the lake... It is beginning to get dark.. You can see the lights on in the rooms.. AND--when we walked by there, people just like us were sitting on their porches enjoying the sunset. 9/13/16 |
 |
| Night-Night!!!!! We are back to the room enjoying the sunset 9/14/16 |
IF you ever get to the Peaks of Otter, be sure and stay in one of the inn rooms --and don't miss the little walk around the lake... SO beautiful and relaxing especially at sunset.
I took lots more pictures as we traveled around that lake --but I'll show more of them in another post when I share more of the lake, sky, sun, and reflections... What JOY.
Hope your life is wonderful. They 'say'????? that we are supposed to get some cooler weather this week... Hope we can also get some rain --but who knows??????
Blessings to you.
Hugs,
