      Ah, I hope you had a good vacation there, Maggie.

      1. Maggie

        I did. I miss living around there. It’s like coming home.

    Nobody?
    Too early?
    Too late?

    1. Mary K. Doyle

      The end of the season here, Gustavo. Kids are back in school.

  3. Ana Daksina

    Very evocative, the brown ground, the lowering light, the empty chairs. Nice pathos.

    1. Mary K. Doyle

      Thank you, dear Ana. All the best to you.

      1. Ana Daksina

        Thank you, dear.

  5. Laura

    Lovely, Mary 😊 looks like a peaceful place

    1. Mary K. Doyle

      Thank you, Laura. It was a nice beach. Most of the Eastern coast of Lake Michigan is clean and enjoyable.

    Lovely image, I hope you’re enjoying the end of summer.

    1. Mary K. Doyle

      Thank you, Pooja. The weather has been lovely, so yet, I enjoy being outside. Is it summer in Kenya?

      1. Pooja G

        No it’s our winter so very fall like weather. Cold and rainy. It’s my favourite, actually.

    Nice picture, tells a story. Brings to mind the first few lines of “The Boys of Summer:”

    Nobody on the road
    Nobody on the beach
    I feel it in the air
    The summer’s out of reach
    Empty lake, empty streets
    The sun goes down alone

    1. Mary K. Doyle

      Oh, I love that, Daryl. Thank you for sharing this poem. Have a fabulous weekend.

    Not yet, Mary! We have a few more weeks here.

    1. Mary K. Doyle

      The weather is supposed to get warm again next week, but our beach days are numbered in the Midwest and North.

  13. Destiny

    your image stuck in my mind for some reason…it came with the thought of …..nature at peace from us humans for a while (😬)

    1. Mary K. Doyle

      Right? All can return to the natural without us running, polluting, screaming. Great observation, Destiny.

    That photo says it all…back to work, back to school, summer fun is done. Happy Friday Mary. Alla

    1. Mary K. Doyle

      Thank you, Allan. It’s now warm and sunny here, and I love this weather so much. Spring and summer are my favorite times of year. Autumn is nice, but it makes me sad to think winter will be on its way. Hugs.

I’m curious about your thoughts and comments.
