This last week Alex was working for the Ministry of Forests getting the back country campgrounds ready for the summer. Mom, Dad the hairy slobbery sisters Bob and Sam, Angel Nellie and Hissy Old Licorice used to fish and camp up in those campground every summer until Mom started selling at the Farmer's Markets, but they were still a favorite day trip and Dad would go up there fishing. Cell phone cameras were not to good back then and Mom is a terrible photographer so there are not very many pictures. So when Alex was to go up there with Heinz, Mom asked that pictures be taken. Alex was at Hoodoo Lake.

Marv imagining being at the Lake.
Hoodoo Lake is actually a dam. This was built and is maintained by a local ranch. As you can see our neighbor who piles rocks has been there this spring already! one of his arches is by the spillway into the creek.
And this is our Art!
Finally, I thought I would use my Feline Friday image. I used the Photo to People - Photo Typography Effect Generator!
I think they ALL came out purrfectly!

I just love outdoor nature so I truly enjoy those photos. Marv you looked really good sitting beside the lake and keeping your fur nice and dry. That's a lot of work that your big brother is doing to help clear the trails. But all of us that like to hike and bike and be outside truly do appreciate the work that's done by these people everywhere. We've had days of rain again with high winds and now cold temperatures can you believe that. So there are going to be lots of trees down on our bike paths and are hiking trails.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos of a lovely place. Great art too and thanks for the puzzles.
ReplyDeleteMarv, your imaginary trip to the lake was a pleasure to see! And Alex your brother did a fine capture of the Lake for us.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful place to go camping. We love your art selection too.
