Yes, I've snuck away to the log cabin mid-week. It was a glorious morning today, wish I could've shared it with you! The lake ice has melted, the sun is shining, the birds are chirping....
And my beloved loons have returned. I honestly had tears in my eyes as I watched the pair swim across the lake (very far away from me so escuse the bad photo!)
And least I forget, another winner from my log cabin followers. Congratulations to JyLnc at A cup of joe with a view! I will be sending you a surprise gift from my nature store! Jylnc - please email me your address at shelleyupnorth at gmail dot com!
FYI - I am able to make personalized Mother's Day Gifts from my nature store. If you see a photo you like at my nature store, I can place that on any gift item such as a coffee mug, print, T shirt, keychain, greeting card, box of note cards, etc. Please contact me at the email address above with any questions or requests.

You did share it with all of us via your beautiful photography. Glad the loons have returned. I love their call. -Sandy
hey Shelley! I have still never visited your store!! I just might do my mother's day shopping there - maybe I will find something they will love! have fun at the cabin - but you don't need me to tell you that!
Shelley, glad you were able to get away to the cabin mid-week. And it's fun to see the loons return. Where do they go all winter?
Congrats to Jylnc.
Lucky you getting to make a mid-week trip.
So happy your loons have returned and that photo is wonderful!

This is just so breathtaking. I don't blame you for getting away to the cabin. I am afraid if I had a cabin like it I wouldn't be home too much. he he
Thank you so much for sharing the beauty.
Hugs, Bobbi Jo
Great news, congratulations to JyLnc! And more great news that the loons are back. How wonderful!
Congratulations to the winner! Your pictures are beautiful. I can almost hear the loons calling. I hope you have a wonderful day ♥
Ice is out here too! Heard peepers last night -- so excited!

Thanks for sharing. I miss the loons since I left Minnesota. They are wonderful, no other bird like them. Sharon
Um, Awesome - Loon Season coming up quick! We have this super cool thing in our area - a Loon Census run by the DEC that residents can participate in. You just sign up, and choose a body of water that is still available. I have the pond/lake by our house. Can't wait. Congrats to JyLnc!
Lucky girl to get away like that (o: It is raining today and suppose to turn to snow. The grass and plants need moisture so bad, so it is all good (o: Will you stay there through the weekend? How fun.
So glad your beloved Loons have arrived...it looks beautiful there.
Yea!!!! Thanks for telling me because I did miss this post. I'll send you my snail mail addy!
I can't believe you said you were sorry for the bad photo of the loon.
Are you kidding? It was GREAT!!
Maybe you thought it was blurry from the tears in your eyes. Yeah..that's it.
