Lazy Days at the Cottage ...

If you have wondered what I've been doing lately ...

Looking upstream along the Raystown Branch of the Juniata ...

Looking downstream on the river ...
someone got to my sweetie's spot before he did so

he fished right in front of the cottage ...

Of course after fishing you have to let the 'kids' in the water!

like I said before - coffee just tastes so good
while setting on the porch of the cottage ...

So instead of blogging alot, this is what I've been doing
for we needed to get away from doing this big job ...
Tension has been tight since 'sweetie' decided to put siding
on our home. Great idea, love the color, looks wonderful,
but couldn't have we paid someone to do it? (NO!)
So slow it goes, not much motorcyle riding neither.
Sweetie needed to get away from this for while so we
headed to the cottage ... I can smell the coffee still ...

Walking on Rails-to-Trails ...

Went for a walk over the weekend

on the Rails-to-Trails in my area.
Old Railroad tracks are
converted into
walking, hiking, and biking
trails for families to enjoy.


Most areas are nice and flat
with a fine, fine gravel dirt on them.
But the views are eye catching ...

On a hot summer day ...

You've got to
cool off the dogs ....

Dakota & Bella ...
All Bella wanted to
do was drink the water
but Dakota enjoyed
his sit down!

Road Kill ~~

My Oldest son is a Trapper.
He and I went for a motorcycle ride the other day
and look what we found on the road.
A Weasel ...
They are hard to trap, let alone even see one
in the woods ... but
this poor fella got it's head squished
on the road ...
the fur is gorgeous actually ...
they turn white with a black tipped tail
in the winter time.

my new riding buddy ~~

Cruising around Central PA with my son!
These are his new wheels!
There is nothing like cruisin'
around back roads on a bright,
sunny day with family.
My husband and I have our own
motorcycles and now our
oldest son has joined us.

Life's little pleasures ...
