Today's stroll took place in my present location, the cottage on the Big Lake, and I was accompanied by the dogs.
First we walked down the hill to see the brook--very full and noisy after torrential rains last night and early this morning. It passes under a neighbour's house on its way into the lake.
Foaming water around the boulders.
The delicate flower of the plant sometimes known as wintergreen, also called partridge berry.
The tiniest mushrooms I've ever seen.
After our woodland stroll, we wandered down to the dock to feed the fish. Jewel gobbles up some green blueberries.
The entire crop is not in danger--there are plenty of berries well beyond her reach!
After strolling, Ruth cools down in the lake. A couple of days ago, after two years of refusing to go down the rocks to get into the lake, she decided it was worth doing. Now we can hardly keep her out of the water!
Happy strolls to you. See more of them at A Quiet Country House.
