The eagle has landed

 ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ 


This is one of the two the bald eagle's nests at Camp Verne.

It is just so amazing to watch them flying above us and landing in one of the tall trees.

Though I was able to see one up in the very high branches of a pine 

I wasn't able to capture a picture because all of the branches.

My son-in-law's grandfather bought this land and built a small, rustic cabin.

There is no running water or electricity.

There is an outhouse and lanterns. 


In return for not "improving" the land or cabin

you are gifted with a quiet peacefulness.

Every time I visit this place I can feel the land's beautiful energy.

    A small rustic cabin deep in the woods sounds like the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
    Beautiful photos!

    That last picture is the essence of peacefulness. It looks like a truly special place.

    beautiful. We didn't have running water either on my childhood camp property in the southern Adirondacks. Instead, we had the outhouse a quarter mile down the back trail and would take our showers at grandma's on the edge of town across the road from the Great Sacandaga Resevoir. We did have electricity but it was .....shall we say.....we used oil lamps in the evening ....hahah Love the simplicity of nature scenes like this

Deep peace of the running wave to you.
Deep peace of the flowing air to you.
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you.
Deep peace of the shining stars to you.
Deep peace of the gentle night to you.
Moon and stars pour their healing light on you

Abby and Hopie time

  ~ ~ ~ Abby and Hopie go to the beach. On Saturday my granddaughter, Abigail, asked if she could come to her Hopie's house all by herself. Of course, I said I would love that! Her older brother, Verne, wanted to go to a friend's house and her younger sister, Natalie, is too young to be away from mum for an overnighter. So...it was me and Abigail for the weekend. She wanted to stay 2 nights! I think she may have been slightly motivated by the need for some alone time and Natalie's late night crying. ~ We cooked homemade cornmeal waffles together for breakfast. When your grandmother is a Montessori teacher you learn to cut your waffles up by yourself. You can see the concentration on her face.  I didn't help at all! Verne's first day of Kindergarten! I drove up in the morning to watch him get on the bus! He loves it! On Monday morning Abigail and I drove back up to her house. My daughter, Hannah, came over with delicious donuts and Bonnie made a breakfast of bacon, s

a basket from the farmer's market

  A basket from the farmer's market. When I was a child my mum always had a fruit basket on the kitchen table.  Fruit was always an option if we were hungry at any time during the day. I had the same when my children were young and I noticed while visiting my daughter last week that she had a basket of apples on her table for her children. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree... I tend to put a basket of vegetables on the table as well.  Root veggies mostly since they don't need to be refrigerated.  I think that they look beautiful and why should fruit have all the fun! My favourite part is that everything (even the basket) came from the local farmer's market. It's so important to support local farmers.

 ~ ~ ~ A bit of reading material.  I've been collecting books again... I've almost finished Think Indigenous.  My daughter bought it as a gift for me but decided to read it first. She loved it so much it took her a bit to part with it. I am loving it as much as she did and have put it down almost all the way through  because I don't want it to be over.  Macro tex
