I met a friend Wednesday at the channel between
Muskegon Lake and Lake Michigan.
As I waited for her, I enjoyed watching a mother and daughter
fishing at the channel edge.
It was very sweet to watch the daughter
run back and forth and back and forth again
to patiently bait her moms hook.
to patiently bait her moms hook.
Many smiles and kind words between them.
The day was beautiful,
many ships, cruisers and sail boats
going in and out of the channel.
Fences everywhere I looked . . .
A few critters too!
Snow fences have already been put in place
in anticipation of the approaching winter.
It didn't spoil the setting sun though.

George Carlin gets credit for these words on remembering . . .
Remember to spend some time with your loved ones,
because they are not going to be around forever.
Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe,
because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.
Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you,
because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart
and it doesn't cost a cent.
and it doesn't cost a cent.
Until next time,
Love, Lynne

What a pretty place they had for fishing. It looked so relaxing and peaceful. Snow fences already....say it ain't so.
George Carlin..he was so funny. I hated to miss any show he appeared on.
What a fun place to wait for a friend...
Are my emails coming through to you??
Spent hours yesterday trying to get things fixed...AOL did their best...but not sure if the problem is solved. The comment will tell the story. Hopefully.

We've had some beautiful days this September, haven't we?! How nice that you had some moments to reflect in a beautiful place, while waiting for your friend. I enjoyed George Carlin's words, too.
Lynn, love those words! How lovely to sit and enjoy this time of year, my favorite! Wonderful post~
It looks like a lovely spot for an afternoon of fishing off the bank. Pretty shots!
That looks like a beautiful place to fish or just to sit and enjoy the water. Loved reading about the mother and daughter fishing. Have a nice weekend!
Beautiful post, Lynn. Lovely scenery - so good for the soul. And excellent quote - so much truth in those words.
Gorgeous shots....and the water is so beautiful. It looks like summer is definitely ending for everyone....sigh.

How wonderful it must be to live near such beautiful water....
It's so true that you never know when it will be the last time you see someone. What a lovely series of the pair--so sweet to spend time together. The scenery is so bright and pretty.
Lucky you! Great shots and a sweet witness to the mother and daughter fishing trip :)

I love bodies of water. . .no matter the form. Carlin's got the remembering down for sure. It takes practice, I think, to make these habits in our life. xo ~ Nancy
