Bruneau Sand Dunes State Park, Idaho.
Just a quick trip out to the dunes. I'm getting that itch for Sping. I felt like heading out for a hike to someplace without snow.
occasionally we can pause and take a breath,
this is especially a great time to re-center or focus...
from normal life events we might drift unaware,
then in turn allow direction to our happy kind of island ....

Leaves and shadows floating downstream, plus if you enlarge you will find a couple hitchhikers!
....based on today's snow in our area - I believe it may have already drowned!
... It's very hot the past few days in the Netherlands, so for lots of dogs that means swimtime. Drift goes swimming the whole year, in winter too. He's like an all-terraine dog, got an all-weather coat and his engine goes in full gear, and he's loving it :) ...

Makes it my highest to date Thank you everybody
Added to the Cream of the Crop pool as most favorited, but now its 3rd!
The trees are in their autumn beauty,
The woodland paths are dry,
Under the October twilight the water
Mirrors a still sky...

Drifting away ......
in the depth of your blu ocean eyes
i can see it
see it in your eyes
when you lie awake at night
so take my hand and hold on
take my hand don't let go.
Remembering Tillicum Island, which sadly is now closed.

Happy Fence Friday!

I close my eyes, then I drift away, into the magic night I softly say. A silent prayer, like dreamers do, then I fall asleep to dream my dreams of you.

Mother Mary, feel me prevail...
You're not anything at all
Drifting, fading, clean, sharp detail...
You're not anything at all
Stationary, vivid and clear...
You're not anything at all
Mother Mary, save your tears...
I'm not anything at all
I don't think that I, I don't think that i...
Can feel anything at all, and i...
Mother Mary, broken and pale...
You're not anything at all
Watching, waiting, withered and frail...
You're not anything at all
Visionary, wasted, stagnant years...
You're not anything at all
Mother Mary, silence your fears...
I'm not anything at all
Mother Mary, feel me fade
Hear me whisper, hear me fade
Drifting, waiting, feel me fade
In the distance, far away
A canoe is a lightweight narrow water vessel, typically pointed at both ends and open on top, propelled by one or more seated or kneeling paddlers facing the direction of travel and using a single-bladed paddle.
In British English, the term "canoe" can also refer to a kayak, while canoes are then called Canadian or open canoes to distinguish them from kayaks.
Canoes were developed by cultures all over the world, including some designed for use with sails or outriggers. Until the mid-1800s the canoe was an important means of transport for exploration and trade, and in some places is still used as such, sometimes with the addition of an outboard motor. Where the canoe played a key role in history, such as the northern United States, Canada, and New Zealand, it remains an important theme in popular culture.
Canoes are now widely used for competition and pleasure, such as racing, whitewater, touring and camping, freestyle and general recreation. Canoeing has been part of the Olympics since 1936. The intended use of the canoe dictates its hull shape, length, and construction material. Historically, canoes were dugouts or made of bark on a wood frame, but construction materials evolved to canvas on a wood frame, then to aluminium. Most modern canoes are made of moulded plastic or composites such as fibreglass.
The word canoe came into English from the French, who had borrowed it from the Spanish. They in turn had borrowed the word from the Arawakan languages of the Caribbean. Source Wikipedia.

This photograph was taken from the Lower Seletar Reservoir Heritage Bridge looking towards the Orchid Country Club at sunrise.
It was a slightly breezy morning, with some movements of the reservoir surface. The sun has arisen above the vegetation and appeared brightly while the sun was captured as a sunstar. The various slowly drifting clouds were illuminated differently and provided contrasting colours and shapes to the beautiful landscape.
Best wishes for a relaxing weekend!
