It's Fall for sure, but when I was scrolling through my pics looking for inspiration, this summer scene caught my eye. That tree! I enjoyed the challenge of all that green; and that charming blow-up pool is calling my name. We had one like it when my oldest was two and I was pregnant with my second. 

My toddler and I enjoyed many days of leisure in our own 'bungalow pool', lol. 

Miss you, Summer!

The best campsite ever!

I've been working on this one randomly over the last year or so, and I now declare it complete.

The last rays of sun hitting that little peninsula; it was so incredibly stunning. The gently swirling dark clouds, the glowing tops of the towering Ponderosa Pines...amazing. (Ponderosas are one of my favorite trees, btw, - they're often over a hundred feet tall, with rough reddish bark and those crazy curly branches. Love!)

This moment was difficult to recreate, but I'm happy with the essence.
