Fishhawk Lake-Tuesday Travelogue September 23rd

Welcome to the ongoing weekly series called Tuesday Travelogue. We are in our thirteenth  week! Each week, some ActiveRain bloggers are spotlighted to take us somewhere we may not have been on some kind of virtual travel (and it doesn't cost a dime!). Here is the purpose:

 

" to enjoy the ride"

"take a trip without even leaving the farm"

"expand your horizons"

"see through someone else's eyes"

 

and hopefully much more!

 

 

With the first day of fall, I thought I would leave you with some  summer memories...the theme today.

 

What's better than a summer wedding celebration post to make you smile and feel a true sense of family? Rene Fabre does a great job inviting us to enjoy his precious daughter's wedding in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho

Come with me to Arkansas! But first South Carolina! The terrific travel writer, Mryl Jeffcoat has taken us for a journey to the south. Summertime and the Livin' is Easy! (Be sure and check out all of her posts from this trip in Travelers in the Rain

Magnolia Plantation

When I think of summer, the BEACH always comes to mind. As we say good-bye to it (for most of us), Kathy Streib delivers the beach goods with AMAZING photos just to make us want to be on both  Delray AND Palm Beach!

delray beach- in september

And to end, I'm going to be self-indulgent and share my Endless Summers post, as I head back to the place where I grew up spending summers--The Thousand Islands. This set the tone for me to fall in love with what I now call home, Fishhawk Lake. EVERY child should have the great childhood experiences that I had--I was so lucky!! 

Good bye, Summer!!!! Til next year!!!!

  I hope that you enjoyed all of these virtual travels. Please feel free to join our group

Travelers in the Rain!

The photos tell a beautiful story, or perhaps I should say stories.  Ah sweet summer, and the memories it leaves behind.

Good evening Gayle, all these photos are just beautiful and Coeur dAlene Idaho has always intrigued me.  Enjoy the nostalgia and beauty of the Thousand Islands and create a hundred more memories for yourself with your family.

Gayle,

I enjoy your Tuesday Travelogue very much! I would love to hear more about Thousand Islands. I'll bet you could write a thousand stories and take a couple thousand photos too!

You're such a special lady and I thank you.

Hello Gayle. I'm commenting today from my tablet and having some challenges. The foformatting keeps messing up and it's cutting off some words! 

 

Thank you for the virtual end of summer trip. Seems to me that summer gets shorter every year.

Thanks for sharing these photographs. I really like this series and home it will be a permanent feature for you.

I did follow your instructions and 'liked' all of the comments on this blog.

Donny, I will try to deliver some of those to you shortly!

Norma, loved this comment!

Gary, it's got beautiful stony earth-tone areas that are so different from Oregon. I drove through there on my way to Oregon from Philly in '79. 

R&A~and we are deep in it! 

Rob, your positive attitude is always infectious. 

Joanna Cohlan  our family is rich in history on the Thousand Islands. My sister and I are fifth generation staying on Murray Island! You have to go....it's on your side of the continent, after all! Idaho, too.

Patricia, be sure and share your travels with us and I'll make sure we get you spotlighted--can't wait!

Joe Petrowsky  I woke up yesterday morning and realized that I didn't have this ready! I had only a short window of time before heading into "town" for the day. Threw this together, so I'm happy you enjoyed it.

James, your bucket list is getting larger each week!

Mryl, thank you for delivering the goods...

Barbara-Jo Roberts Berberi & Corinna Birgit Cromartie I figure that you will offer me more in the future, too....just put it in Travelers in the Rain group.

Debb, I was wondering what you'd been up to--now I know! Have a great time with her...enjoy every minute...we'll be here.

Suzanne, how cool that you recognize it.

Donna Foerster  I blasted through summer like the Tasmanian Devil. You're right! Great successes in real estate this year, tho...no complaints here.

Roy, I plan on it!

Gayle, everyone of these photos touches my senses and I picture myself standing there.  Thanks for sharing.

P.S. our summer keeps on going going and going so make plans to come down and take a break - you've been working hard and you deserve it.

Ellie Penaranda I leave tomorrow (very VERY early) for Pittsburgh to attend my high school reunion, then get to see my sister for a brief stop in Cleveland, where she and I will turn around and drive to the Thousand Islands and spend a week with my mom. I am SO excited!!! 

Mom lives there til Octoberish, then drives back down to FLA, where she lives near a manatee rehab center, on the water. So fabulous. 

It would be fun to tour FLA, see my mom, my mother-in-law in Boca Raton/Ft. Lauderdale area, you and Kathy Streib  What a trip that would be!

Hi Gayle... Thanks so very much for including me in your Tuesday Travelogue. I'm honored. Indeed, goodbye to summer. It's raining in Seattle and much cooler. Hard to imagine just a couple of weeks ago I was in Idaho and it was in the low 80's. I'm such a fan of yours, and Myrl and Kathy... Love the fact I'm sharing some space with you three. Thanks again.
