Too little time?!?

Well, in this title for today I have utilized-yet once again- the premise that I have too little time.

In this instance it is not true. I have been here in the Adirondacks since early June and I have had some free time but I must say that I have been extremely productive despite that down time.

I have sketched and painted and written almost every day! Granted, I have been negligent in respect to this blog and a few others, as well as my web site but, I don't feel quite as guilty since I have produced in other areas... I wrote articles for a regional paper, wrote 30,00 words for my non-fiction book, 15,000 in my historical fiction mid-grade book; sketched tons of boats, docks, Adirondack chairs, homes, mountains and the like; as well as painted most of them once drawn.

It has been a wonderful summer. The bugs were ferocious at times and the rain occasionally became a bit "old" but bloodsuckers and wet weather aside my time here has been, as always, spiritually rewarding. I love this place- always have, always will.

I have a week or two remaining before I head back to my other home in central PA-which I love too- but part of me will always stay here. As I remember the vivid fall colors that grace the most gorgeous glacial mountains and think about the ice as it groans on this lake I love so much, my heart stays warm throughout the winter months as I revisit, in my mind, one of the most beautiful places on this earth...
