Ah yes....I wasn't quiet enough on the dock so these Mergansers ran for their lives. Seriously, I won't hurt you! Though I do have visions of capturing you and putting you in my bathtub to be permanent pets.....no, I'm kidding! Really! Come back...

Morning at the log cabin
Morning is my favorite time at the cabin. The lake is calm. The air is crisp and clean. The birds are chirping. (Never mind that Greg is snoring like crazy and the dog kept licking my face at 4 in the morning to go to the bathroom.)

Beautiful Shelley....
ReplyDeleteLovely photos!
ReplyDeleteI love mornings at/on the lake! Frank and I always feel sorry for people that miss God's beautiful sunrises while listening to the water lap at the boat. It's just a calming time of day!
I am a morning person too. I like the newness of the day....
ReplyDeleteNow that is a wonderful view to wake up to.
ReplyDeleteIt looks so peaceful and gorgeous. Thanks for sharing...

What a wonderful way to start the day! (I'm talking about the view, not the other things). How can you stand to leave the cabin?
ReplyDeleteIt's so wonderful that you have such a peaceful place to retreat to! Enjoy the weekend!!

Greg snoring????? My hubby can do the same thing --but luckily, most of the time his snoring is not loud (thank goodness).
ReplyDeleteGreat picture of the Mergansers.
Where are the loons now?
Hugs,

I love sipping my morning coffee on your deck overlooking the calm lake watching the ducks flying/swimming for their very lives.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to start the day!
I want to have oj on your deck and talk about life in a cabin!
ReplyDeleteI am sure everything is coming to life there
ReplyDeletenoisy and pretty (o:
Early morning hours...cups of hot coffee...and a view like that. You have it made! That is one beautiful view. How do you ever leave it? I know quite well the sound of snoring. I rings in my home too. I quess I would miss it if it wasn't there.
ReplyDeleteWishing you a fun weekend!
I love seeing all the wildlife and birds coming back in the spring on the lake, don't you? Nice captures, Shelley!
ReplyDeleteI love the late morning in at the cabin. Like Greg I'm snoring until sunrise (9:00 over Goat Island). But I do love to lie in bed and listen to the birds while I'm being lazy. - Margy
ReplyDeleteHi Shelley! Your photos always rock. Morning is my favorite time also, I cant sleep in on days off anymore, its weird but i get to excited to get up and start the day.
ReplyDeleteThere is a lake and cabin show in Milwaukee next week, I hope to get there.
Very beautiful and peaceful Shelley:)

Glad the weather is picking up and you can start to enjoy all the delights of the spring wildlife Shelley.

Peace and quiet for me usually includes Patrick's snore and a dog or two whining to get out! Funny huh? Your photos do reflect a peacefulness. The soft swishing of the ducks wings against the water. Ahhh. Can't wait to get home to N.Idaho!
ReplyDeleteThe view is lovely....what a wonderful place is sit w/a cuppa and marvel....

Hi Shelley,
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to thank you for your kind comments to my anniversary post. I really appreciate them :-)
Blessings,
Marcia
What a way to start the day.! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful place to wake up too. I love all of your photos. I can almost hear the birds and the gentle rummblings of the water.
ReplyDeleteWe too have a log house in the not-so-wilds of Canada. Morning is a special time. In summer we wake up under our bedroom skylight and watch trees swaying, birds passing by. Heavenly!
