Tuesday Tidbits #286 An Awesome August

August Memories

It’s been a fantastic August so far. We’ve had family over, and it’s been wonderful! We’ve enjoyed plenty of laughter, fun activities, bingo, boating, tubing, listening to live bands by the lake, and indulging in delicious food, including a Pig Roast at a friend’s place. Sweet Man, and I love making memories with the people we love. These memories last a lifetime! Are you creating unforgettable memories and ensuring that the remainder of your summer is packed with countless activities?

I won $300 in Gift Cards at Bingo!

This last week we were blessed with plenty of breathtaking sunsets.

Childhood Memories

The other day, I had the opportunity to share the beautiful places and activities I experienced at the lake, when growing up, with some of our family members who had never been here before. When I was young I thought we lived in a typical place. Everyone had a lake, right?  Now I realize this place is not typical, and I had an incredible childhood here. After my few chores were done, I was free to gather with my friends, and we either fished, swam, or boated, which meant water skiing. We even had a place called the Canoe Club to hang out at. Or we could ride our bikes to the penny candy store. In the winter, ice skating was on the lake after a day of sledding. We always had something to do and somewhere to explore. We were never bored. Now I realize how lucky I was! The Good Ole Days! Now that I’m older, I realize we get to pass on the joy of Lake Living to our family! There are always fun times at the Lake! 

Summer is Still the Season for Me

With the arrival of mid-August, I do find myself thinking of the summer activities I still hope to experience. I need to Kayak a few more times, enjoy a few more sunsets out on the boat with sweet man, get more bike rides in, have a sister day with My Sister, a gal pals dessert party, and I want to have lunch with a neighbor. I have been craving a pasta dish with fresh tomatoes, which are ripe and ready! Now, I need to make it! These are just a few of the Summer activities I’m excited to do. I’m determined to make the most of this season! I will not let Summer slip away. 

Our Garden Flowers

The gardens still look great, but many flowers, such as the Bee Balm, Daisies, and Lilies, are ending. They have all been cut back. Zinnias, coneflowers, black-eyed susans, and hydrangeas are still going strong. The roses in our garden are blooming with vibrant colors once more. It’s impressive to see how my mom’s red roses have continued to bloom for over 50 years.
