Babs has company—everyone has company, it’s the busiest weekend of the year in Torch Lake Township. But in the midst of all of it, may you have moments for quiet enjoyment and a good sunset.

What a peaceful image! Was that last night’s sunset? Never mind–you don’t have to bother answering. Just enjoy!

Hi PJ! I’m going to guess Babs captured that sunset on Sunday evening, but last night’s was every bit as peaceful. Looks like we’re going to have a whole week of summer Around Here, and a fine thing that is.
Update: OK, I meant Saturday night. Today is Monday. I just put a note on my monitor to remind me. Sigh.

Who could possibly have imagined, in 1776, that we would be having this conversation at all, let alone that you’d approve of our rebellious natures?!? The world is a strange and beguiling place. I like it here.

Saturday night it was at a delightful wedding in Alden.

Had to be. No sunsets on the west side of the lake . . .

Thanks to Babs for sharing this beautiful quietness. And thank you Gerry for posting.
I hope you all had a great ‘birthday’.

There were excellent birthdays all over the place. The Township is packed with people–it’s all we can do to thread our way through the crowds–and everyone is in a good mood.

Only a single glass. That looks a little lonesome too. But I take your words for it, and imagine the crowd.

I love the gleam on the dark polished table top. It looks lovingly cared for. Yes, funny, isn’t it. Wonderful how some disputes fade from memory, yet so sad how others are kept alive for generations.

True, that. We seem determined to create another civil war over here. At least this time everyone’s wrapped in the same flag, making it harder to actually shoot at each other with anything more lethal than radio rants. We are a contentious people.

Yummy. Both the wine and the sunset.

Watch out for repetitive stress injuries to the elbow. Makes it hard to dive into excellent treats.

That picture makes me go “Ahhhhhhhh.” I’d love to be sitting there.

Well come on out. We’ll make you a map and everything. There’s always a seat near the Ahhhhhhhhh.
