The trees reflected in the river -- they are unconscious
of a spiritual world so near to them. So are we.

Sharing the beauty of Northern Michigan.
Welcome!
I love "Up North" and have appointed myself the unofficial travel ambassador for Northern Michigan. There are so many great things to do - visit the State Parks, ski, snowmobile, view elk, see the moose of Isle Royale, hike, kayak, visit a winery, bird watch and so much more. Please join me in my travels.

Beautiful reflections. We don't have any snow yet, it has actually been a mild fall here in Coastal BC. Thanks for visiting my post about the Hulks in Powell River. -- Margy
What a beautiful picture. Thank you for visiting my blog and your kind comments for Rev. Frank. I am so stunned and sad for his wife and children. God bless you tonight.
Very nice capture w/ the reflections.
I also like the poem - it fits, doesn't it.
You always seem to find the best words to fit your photos!
Beautiful post in many ways :>)
You do fit your words with your photos perfectly! Nice capture.
Great picture and I love the quote that was so perfect for this. This would be a good one for Watery Wednesday (hint, hint).
:-D
I appreciate your kind comments on my blog. Your photos are also breathtaking. I love to view your winter photos. They are definitely putting me in the Christmas spirit.
What a breath taking scene. If that's the area surrounding your log home, it is just spectacular.
Brrrr....
Happy trails.
So very peaceful, and the reflections are great.
Very nice Shelly and such a nice quote to go with it!
Margy - Thank you for coming by! Hope you get a few flakes!
Mildred - I'm still so sad over that story and had related it to one of my friends today over lunch. I wish us all more goodness in this world and less harm.
Ms. Hays - Glad you liked the poem!
Cedar - aw thanks! There's so many great nature quotes out there to grab! :-)
Charli - thank you! Hope you & the hubby are doing well!
Darla - very kind of you to say!
2Sweet - I think I'm challenged when it comes to these meme's - I'm going to shoot for next Wed. I may have questions - LOL!
Melissa - glad someone else is in the christmas spirit w/ me! :-)
Swubird - Thank you! It is by our log home - sometimes I think I'm dreaming when I see all this natural beauty.
Leedra - I'm glad you felt the peace too!
Tina - thank you very much!
Thought provoking quote. Isn't it true about a reflection, or how others see us when we are not looking ... or even when others are not looking.
