Got up Monday morning to nice cool but sunny day. Our weekend had been good, but stupid things messing up, so corporate decision to pack up the camper and go to another of our local favorite camps for the night.
Headed to Saugeen Springs RV Park. It was quite a distance to travel, approximately 10km. But worth every kilometer of it.
Much to our surprise we could even get our favorite site, right on the river's edge.
It is a very friendly, relaxing place to be.
Spent the rest of the afternoon, reading and writing and just chilling out. It was a nice bright sunny day, no humidity, and a nice breeze.
While sitting at the edge of the river I managed to write a poem. Not good at that, but do enjoy poetry. So here goes. Hope you enjoy it.
The River's Edge
It's peaceful
Here at the river's edge.
There is no reason
For word to be said.
The quiet, the peace.
The scenery so fine.
I feel so lucky
This moment is mine.
A host of birds
Begin to sing.
The sound of their choir
Through the air does ring.
The rhythm of the water
Lapping over the stones
Sends sensations of joy
All through my bones
As the evening sky changes
From blue to red
I could almost imagine a fire
In the river's bed.
Through the afternoon we did see two riders and horses wandering through the trails.
After supper we sat around the campfire planning our next trips through the fall and the spring. Not to mention any of the other great weekends we can manage to get away and enjoy.
Tuesday August 17th 2010.
Woke to brilliant sunshine and pleased to say we are both feeling much more relaxed now. So back home to continue the work - nasty word WORK.
Now looking forward to our next trip, which may just be to Cooksburg Pennsylvania.
