It’s Saturday and eighth day of summer break and I am feeling very relaxed and rested.
I was able to remember a few more of the promises I made about summer and acted upon a few before we left town for the lake. We arrived at the lake house very late Tuesday night/Wednesday morning. The dogs barked, but our daughter (who was already here) did not wake. We brought in the essentials before collapsing into our beds.
We fully unloaded Wednesday when we awoke to an amazing day.
We’ve been busy since. Thursday I ran to town for errands and got the fixings for dinner and thought I’d capture a few signs for this week’s post and I discovered one of the signs hadn’t changed since late April!
Friday was a lazy day. Truly, it was overcast and it rained.

This morning it was cloudy and wet from the overnight rain, but it has since cleared and the sunshines brightly. Which means my moments of writing are few and fleeting.
The local veterinarian always has good signs and I captured the signs below when we were here in February and the images were ‘out of date’ by the time I had time to write.
There was snow on the ground and it was much colder than it is today. There is a breeze on the lake and it promises to warm to the mid-70s (about 24-26C). Hopefully, it will trigger more memories of other promises I made about getting a few chores done.
It’s Saturday and it is going to be a full day and as I think back to my first post at MtDC I am reminded,
This could possibility be the best day ever!
(This could possibility be the best day ever,)
And the forecast says that tomorrow will likely be a million and six times better.
So make every minute count, jump up, jump in, and seize the day,
And let’s make sure that in every single possible way,
Today is gonna be a great day!
So I’d better jump up, jump in, and seize the day. Making the Days Count, one day at a time, because that’s how they come.
Do you have any promises you’ve made which are coming due?
Great signs, Clay! And I love that you are feeling relaxed and ready to take on the day — and the summer! Besides it’s always a good day when you’re at a lake, isn’t it?
Thanks. Time stops for no one! Even when you are by a lake, or at home! Thanks for stopping in.
Enjoy your lake time! Don’t do too many chores at once, space them out and sometimes just sit and soak it all in.
We were very task oriented while we were there. My brother and his wife are visiting us this weekend and we had a lot to do, and still do. My wife and I came home Sunday for appointments and life stuff and will be heading back later this week. I am excited for the visit and I hope to share our adventures! Thank you for stopping in. Peace.
Oh goodness, your home patch has cornered the market in cheesy signs! Makes the day go with a smile though!
I am just trying to stick to the right fruits and veggies, staying out of jams is always a good practice. Found a gem you’ll appreciate for this week’s sign! Enjoy the summer.
Haha! Currently in Sweden having a great time!
I hope you are enjoying yourself and taking lots of pictures! Stay curious.
