Sister's Choice Quilts

My interests are quilting, reading, cooking, family, decorating, and matters of style. I post regular quilting tutorials and book reviews of current fiction.

Home Again

012

We had a marvelous vacation last week, and arrived safely back home in time for a little Father's Day barbeque.  The lake in the photo above is Mosquito Lake, which we passed on our way home.

Since it was Father's Day, we indulged my son in law a stop.  He just couldn't resist.  This guy is always ready to cast his line in any available water, I tell you.  Such a simple pleasure, and he enjoys it so much.  Isn't the setting amazing?  I could have sat there on the bank of the lake all day long.

Such lovliness.

  1. Welcome home!!
    What a lovely setting for fishing and sitting serenely on the shore appreciating the beauty all around you. I must ask, could you have found a lake without the name “Mosquito Lake”? Are you eaten up with mosquito bites or was the person who named it trying to deter others from coming by mis-naming the lake (like Iceland)?
    Hugs!

  5. Wow, he is literally fishing “by the side of the road” !! Hopefully it was a nice quiet road that didn’t scare all the fish away with all the noise and vibrations of traffic.

  7. Perfect day it seems. You are a wonderful MIL as well! I guess you two can trade off favors between fishing and quilt shop hopping. Glad you made it back safely! Now let’s get back to those quilts!! 😉

  9. That is exactly why I like to carry hand stitching with me….I can relax while others are doing their thing. I need shade…but that’s it. ;p
    welcome home…you missed the heat wave, ugh!

  13. Sounds like such a wonderful trip! My husband is the same way with fishing, his latest is bass fishing. Does your SIL know of any good bass spots around here? I’m in the East Bay, but looking to do a few “outings” this summer. Thanks for sharing 🙂
