Beautiful picture, Debra.  I am going to have to google Cary, IL and  check out your location.  I don't associate Illinois with lakes and you seem to have a lot of them around.  Looks like a nice area to live.  Thanks for the picture.

Hi Sharon...that is so interesting you say that and yet, we are so close!   We actually have a lot of lakes and waterfront property in Northern Illinois.  The Chain of Lakes has 17 connected lakes (depending on which ones you count) and it is connected to the Fox River, which connects to the Illinois river traveling south and also goes north from the Chain O Lakes to Wisconsin.  We also have many lakes that are not connected to the Fox River and Chain of Lakes...to name a few: Gages Lake, Bangs Lake, Wonder Lake, Slocum Lake, Griswald Lake, Island Lake, Duck Lake, Round Lake....

It goes without saying that in this market there are so many fantastic deals on waterfront properties.  We have a lot of Fox Riverfront and Lakefront homes for sale now and I have never seen so many great deals for a home on the water than now!

My cousins owned property on Bass Lake in Indiana...is that anywhere near you?

Debra,

What an awesome shot!  I love sunsets. 

Now about the title...is this going to get you some Google SEO juice?

Debra,

Thanks for the reply.  My husband has heard of the Fox River and our neighbor to be where we owned land had a sailboat on the Illinois River.  Bass Lake is about an hour's drive north from Lafayette.

Debra,

That is a fantastic photo. Love the color of the sun and its position in the frame. Like the halo effect, too. :)

Debra, now this shot is for me...I have a home in Mchenry County, so I'm very familiar with the "Fox Lake".  My home is in Woodstock and for sale...just thought I would toss that in.

Hi Sharon, that is cool that your husband is familiar with the Fox River.  There are really no sailboats on the Fox River but many on Pistakee Lake and Meyers Bay on the Chain of Lakes.  I have so many wonderful memories of times at my cousin's place on Bass Lake in Indiana.  That may have contributed to my love of both being on the water and helping other people realize and enjoy the waterfront lifestyle.  Thanks so much for stopping back:-)

Steve....REALLY?  Wow, I am honored, thanks so much!!! :-)

Nick, how cool is that?:-)   I just love the Chain of Lakes and Fox River.  I think Pistakee Bay is especially pretty with all of the beautiful larger home and I really love all of the old ones that have been there for so long.  They have so much character.  But, in my opinion, any spot on the water is fantastic, large or small!  It's the view and the lifestyle that are the major advantages of living on the water.  When did you move from Woodstock to Alabama?  What are the biggest differences you see?  What's the address of your home in Woodstock...I will look it up and see if I have anyone I can show it to right now!

Debra, I especially love the colors in the lake.  It looks like the water is shimmering.

Debra, what a great shot.  Love the sunset, but agree with Susan, the most spectacular part of the photo is the colors in the lake.

Hi Debra,

  Awesome sunset!  I don't think I've ever seen such a brilliant red circle around the sun or moon before.  Great shot.
