our friend, the lake

A week ago, we went on a sunset picnic at the lake. There were boats, and ducks, and gold from the slipping sun. There was a summer breeze. There was corn, and watermelon, and salad, and peaches, and white wine in a jar. And an ever-so-delightful pair of new sunglasses. And a genuine picnic basket, found at the thrift store. There were books to read, and Dan's old mickey mouse blanket, which has become our traditional picnic blanket.
