First Post of Spring!

Wow! It's been a really long time since I posted (or took a photo for that matter!) Honestly, I found myself getting a serious case of the winter blues. In Thunder Bay, winter seems to be lasting longer & longer which is terrible news for me because I hate winter and find myself craving flowers & green grass by the time February hits every year! It's so frustrating!

These photos were taken just last week and it still looked like winter. However, within the past week, temperatures have been getting warmer & warmer and now you can only see a bit of ice left on Lake Superior.. so at least winter is leaving and hopefully we won't see our usual May snowfall. I'm ready for shorts, the lake & a cold drink in my hand like, yesterday!! Once flowers start blooming, insects start buzzing & grass starts sticking around, you'll be seeing a lot more activity around these parts! Have a great Monday!

At the Cabin Part III

This is probably my favorite batch of photos (especially the last one).
It reminds me of all things summer stands for: water, flowers, docks, boat launchers, "sun kissed" skin (however mine are still very pasty... I'm working on it).
To me, summer brings happiness! It's my all time favorite season. It's the time when I see family & friends the most and it's a time where I run for the outdoors rather than hide from it. However, summer is the season where I am the least active, eat a ton of food & drink like a fish. Good thing I've been hitting the gym a ton for the past few months. Still, I'm not seeing the results I'd like. I feel really healthy although my eating habits could really use an improvement. It's difficult though.. I love my pad thai & pizza. Oh well, can't win em all.
