Early morning, lakeside....................


A warming cup of coffee, after a 45 minute walk..........and the day starts on the lower deck as the mist rises from the lake.



Yes, the blanket is required at night, plus a cozy comforter!  Can't begin to tell you how great it feels to be cool again.


 Paula's dock complete with everything to ensure fun on the water.  Unfortunately I pulled a muscle in my back on my way to California so I'm not doing anything strenuous for a few days!

Mt.Lassen from Lake Almanor

Daytime temps. are in the perfect 80's - calm mornings with a light breeze in the late afternoon producing small white caps on the lake.  Evenings perfect for dining outside.

  4. Oh so gorgeous. I'd love to live on the water even though I'm not really a water sports person or a strong swimmer even. I just love the feeling of being near the water. Hope you feel better soon!

  6. What perfect photographs. Unfortunately whenever I see water and evening in the same sentence I think 'mosquitos' - hope they were not too bad. Hope your back is soon better.

  7. Love seeing the morning mist on the lake as you drink your coffee. Just the perfect way to start a beautiful day. This is the weather we are having, sleeping under the blanket at night, but sitting in the sun of the late afternoon. It is perfection!
