On November 14, I made a mark!




Saturday morning dawned foggy. The fog was so thick you could see it roll off the water just a few feet away. It was beautiful and it cleared pretty quickly.



I took some time to draw another tree beside the cabin. I really put in a lot of detail in this drawing but I don't know if it will show up here. This was another unusual tree that had no leaves but was full of berries that looked like blueberries. The birds really liked those berries.



After taking a ton of pictures to remember the weekend,


it was time to hit the road and head back home.







On November 13, I made memories!

On Friday morning, I woke up early to a beautiful sunrise over Lake Martin. We sat and talked. We walked and played on the playground nearby, even jumping on the merry-go-round for a few spins. We enjoyed the cool weather and beautiful sunshine.






Another item on the agenda was a puzzle and we managed to complete one.


There was also a couple of games of Password and, of course, more Scrabble. I did manage to get in a quick drawing of an unusual tree beside the deck.

It was a full, very relaxed day!

On November 12, I made a trip, high score and a bingo!


On Thursday, I took a trip to Lake Martin for a girls' getaway with 2 of my sisters and my sister-in-law. The drive was about 4 hours and beautiful! Down in LA (lower Alabama) we don't see quite the variety of fall color that I saw on that trip. I listened to my music, sang out loud and enjoyed the scenery and cool weather.



One of the main items on the agenda for the weekend, right behind "relax," was playing Scrabble. Scrabble is my game. I love words and the challenge of seeing how many points I can score. Thursday night I made the high score, including a BINGO! with a score of 103 points for one word.



Here is our cozy little cabin that sat only a few steps from the beautiful water.



There was a lot of laughs here this weekend!
