queen ann's lace

i don't remember there being fields and fields

of queen ann's lace here in nova scotia

but it is everywhere!

i love it

i went for a walk once we got home

around the property and i was struck by the color

in the background of the late afternoon sun

i forgot my camera earlier or i would have taken

photos of matt and emily standing in the lake at 

birch cove freezing,

or the rowers rowing frantically to the finish line,

or a wet dog dripping by the shore,

or the light sparkling on the water

but it is all a memory

of a lovely summer day here

it was actually hot.

so nice
