Jumping in the lake

the moon was crescent....and it had a small nose... so we packed the Winnie and drove to the lake.


The first evening meal cooked over a fire outside.....was an organic mess of spinach, and kale, an organic avocado, a cherry tomato from our garden,  and a simple oil and rice vinegar, a hippie vegetarian burger, and olive bread....requisite martini.....



some fried potatoes and sweet potatoes to eat for breakfast.....
cast iron pan......good all the time.


time for some relaxation.....plug in the computer and work on some pictures for this weeks listings on etsy..... yep. that's my penguin and beach ball towel, and the swim shorts drying in the sun.......

kick off your shoes.........you're camping!


take a walk with the dog in the tall doug firs.....


the Winnie in the woods......



Washington Parks & Recreation brass marker.....GPS?



Ahhhh....the lake. old tree roots. real old log..... I waded in....and swam. It was one of the things that I must do in the summer...so on a day of 92 degrees, we chose well.....and were at the lake.....perfect for a summer afternoon dip........

it's a 1930s New Deal CCC camp so there is a lot of natural log buildings and signs....and, quite a few stone steps to the lake from the picnic areas........Warmth and comfort that is missing from todays city parks with their cheezy "Water spray features" and corporate Subway "food" concessions.....




more pics to come......it was a gorgeous trip......warm, delicious and my goodness, the neighbors......




 and what was listed when we returned?

2 60s mod dresses..... a couple of 70s dresses......








and a pair of vintage riding boots.......by 9West, size 7.
