“In the summertime when the weather is hot
You can stretch right up and touch the sky
When the weather’s fine
We go fishin’ or go swimmin’ in the sea
We’re always happy
Life’s for livin’ yeah, that’s our philosophy”
The theme in our 52 Project this week is SUMMER.
Summers in North Dakota are short but sweet so I’ve learned to try and take full advantage of them. We all know snow flys too soon around here! So we have been spending a lot of time at the lake this summer. J worked most of last summer so we are taking full advantage of his weekends off this summer. When you only live 10 minutes from gorgeous lake, it’s hard to not just want to take every nice day off of work and head out there!
We didn’t get off the lake the other evening until after 10. It was a calm, beautiful evening and not a cloud in the sky. As we were sitting in the middle of the lake, this sailboat sailed right by us into the sunset. I saw the photo op but only had my cell phone. I shot it anyways and I love it!
Happy Friday and another hot, happy lake weekend!
