Winter Holiday


I edged the dock and bulkhead with white lights and we were happily surprised to see them miles from home, twinkling through the brush that edges the lake, as we drove toward home each evening. An even better surprise was falling asleep each night watching the lights softly reflected on the very calm winter lake.
The light also attracted night feeding birds, such as this blue heron perched on the neighbor's floating log. Two herons hung around and beneath our docks for about chilly three weeks.

"If you wisely invest in beauty, it will remain with you all the days of your life. " (F.L. Wright)
