Feeling Thankful

Today I am so thankful for life, and what matters most to me!



On Sunday afternoon we went for a long walk around a little lake. I love being surrounded by trees and nature.



The leaves were gorgeous, as the afternoon light filtered through the trees and sparkled off the water.



Looking up to the light, through the Bay trees. I always collect a few of these aromatic leaves to add to my soups and stews.



Paddling away, across the water.....Mr. Mallard appears to be gliding along the surface of the water.... but underneath the water, his feet are moving as fast as can be. A good metaphor for life, and many other things.
