Margie (Pictures / Quotes)

Here are some pictures from the weekend. From our time at the hunting shack. It was fabulous to get out of town and into the depths of the woods. A bit too warm for this time of year...but it made for some lovely pictures and time to be surrounded by nature.

which, if we unconsciously
yield to it, will direct us aright.
~Henry David Thoreau

Camouflage
Camouflage is a game we all like to play,
but our secrets are as surely revealed by what we
want to seem to be as by what we want to conceal.
~Russell Lynes

Unfortunately, one of the downfalls of being so deep in the woods and the temps so warm is these little buggers. Getting the food out of the cooler for supper I thought I might go insane from the sheer number of mosquitoes on me. My hands were full of food and I was defenseless. I must have look ridiculous hustling across the porch doing the "get off me" mosquito dance.

If you think you are too small to be effective,

you have never been in bed with a mosquito.
~Betty Reese

It was a lovely weekend. I slept, and slept, and slept some more. I also finished an entire book. The kids played and hubby hunted (did you pick him out in the camouflage pic? Ahhh, go back and look!!!)
