Laborless days at the Cabin!

One of the many things I love about Donn is that he is always ready for a spur-of-the moment adventure...thus our life has been filled with spontaneous little and big trips!  Sunday a.m. about one hour before we headed out to church the decision was made to escape to my dad's cabin in the woods later that day.  It is amazing how much I can do in 50 minutes when I really set my mind to it!  After a flurry of make-up, hair curling, clothes selection, ice chest filled with food and clothes for the woods packed, we hopped in the car first for church and then 80 miles to our get-away!!  Love it!  Flexible and fun, that is my life!  
The day was hot at last and we finally were having summer!  Who cares if it is September, let's jump headlong into this time!  Bathing suits on, Donn began to fish and I hunted for blackberries.  Note to self:  next time wear long pants and sleeves!!!  Those berry prickers sure can dig in the skin.  Full of berries and woods tramping I lounged on my float in the pond forever.  We fished several times a day, catching and releasing perch, bass and even a catfish..Donn went as far as buying me my own fishing pole!  There s nothing like reading a good book snug in the folds of a strong, tree strung hammock, munching on cheetos and dozing off for as long as you like.  The cooler evenings called for a campfire to roast big, juicy chunks of smoked sausage and ears of corn.  Full moon nights with only the sound of crickets and water splashing from the artesian well in the pond...I must store up these sights, sounds and smells of summer for even now the trees are beginning to flash brillant fall colors!  Thank you Father for each season of our year and of our life!!  \
