Happy Saturday!
Here’s a little weekend waterview from Lake Norman.
Mr. Mallard says he hopes your week was ‘just ducky’!
The stars and stripes swooper flags are fluttering by the water. . . .
They come out for Memorial Day and wave in the breeze until Labor Day.
The UV rays and wind takes their toll after 3 months
and it’s time for new banners the following year!
I took these photos over that last couple of weeks.
We had some beautiful spring weather with low humidity,
but when the calendar page turned to June,
meteorological summer arrived bringing us the hottest day
of the year with 90+ degree temperatures, just like clockwork!
We cooled back to the 80s for the weekend, which
makes those wearing fur coats much happier! 🐾🐾
Lola and Sophie are ready for boat rides
with some pontoon-generated breezes!
Sophie says it’s also much easier to nap to the hum of the motor.

I’ll leave you with some sunset views. . .
Happy Weekend ♥

A beautiful sunny day here in Greensboro with low humidity and temps in the 70s. Glad the hot humid days of last week are gone. Not quite ready for full blown summer. Your Lake Norman pictures are just beautiful and your fur babies are enjoying their day on the water. Enjoy the wonderful days of early June .
Thank you Kathy! Yes, I wish these temps would linger. Enjoy your weekend. ♥
So nice to see your girls! Your lake pictures are always so beautiful! Peace.
Thank you Cindi! Happy Weekend 🐾🐾
Mary, The girls are just so precious. I do imagine their thick fur coats are hot during the summer heat and humidity. They’re always so well groomed and are just adorable! Love the swooper flags and the pics of our USA flag reflection in the water. Lake Norman is beautiful. Hope you have a wonderful weekend! Clara ❤️
Thank you for your visit and comment Clara! I hope you’re enjoying some beautiful weather in your neck of the woods. ♥

It’s a beautiful morning here in Michigan. Enjoying coffee with my hubby and planning my gardening chores for the day. Mary, I need you to come and help me decorate my she shed. Well, first I have to convince hubby that gas cans and trimmers do not belong in my she shed. Have a blessed weekend and thank you for sharing your sweet pups.
Hi Linda! Wish I were closer, what fun to decorate a shed. Hope you can talk your hubby into relocating the tools and trimmers. :) Happy Weekend ♥
Thank you for sharing your summer views with us, Mary. Lola and Sophie always make me smile and I can only imagine how fabulous they feel napping in the pontoon on a hot day. 😊
Happy Weekend Kitty! Hope you’re finding a way to stay cool. ♥
Your lake photos are beautiful. Seeing the always adorable Lola and Sophie is always a special treat. Thank you for sharing. Have a blessed weekend.
Thank you for your visits and comment Andree! Happy Weekend to you. 🐾🐾 ♥
Cutest puppy dogs ever! Are the osprey’s back in the nest on top of that pole (or wherever the nest is)?
Lola and Sophie say thank you Mildred! 🐾🐾 Yes the osprey return around the end of February and rebuild their nests on shoal markers and platforms. I’ll try to share some photos soon. Happy Weekend. ♥
Always love your lake photos! Thank you for sharing all the beauty of your lakefront life.
Thank you Betsy! Hope you are well, happy weekend to you. ♥
Wonderful way to spend summer! We’ve had a similar forecast, and I must say, I am thoroughly enjoying the lower temps (especially in the mornings) this weekend. Love your flags and the boat on the dock (nice motorized storage out of the water!). Enjoy, Mary!
Us too Rita, I get so much more done on cooler mornings and not ready for 90+ degree temps. Happy Weekend ♥
Your weekend water series is my favorite or anytime you share your pups!
Thank you Kim! 🐾🐾
Beautiful and your girls are so adorable too!
Thank you for your visit Lori! Happy Weekend 🐾🐾
Mary, I always look forward to your Weekend Water Views. It makes me feel as I’ve been out on the lake. It’s fun to see the girls enjoy the outing. Not sure how Sadie would do on a boat. She doesn’t even like to ride in a car. Looks like a gorgeous days, but that sunset view is the best . Happy June!
Thank you Sarah! Doggie kisses to Sadie, Happy June! 🐾🐾
Beautiful water views, Mary. The girls are always adorable. I probably would be sitting lakeside all the time, it looks so peaceful!
Happy Weekend Pam! Look forward to seeing you tomorrow. ♥
Happy Boating Season Mary! The boats are out in full force in Orange Beach, an endless parade of boats floating by our pier with people relaxing and enjoying…Your precious fur balls look so sweet napping on the boat, love their red, white and blue blanket! I love the photo of the flag reflection in the water~you are all set for Flag Day and the 4th of July!
Jenna
You have a front row seat for great people and boat watching Jenna! Hope you’re enjoying your time seaside. ♥
Your lake view and sunset views look like fine art!! Breathtaking! Oh, my goodness, Lola and Sophie are just beautiful and so fluffy! My grandpups sure like boat rides too!
Wonderful post!
Nancy~
Thank you Nancy! Isn’t if funny how they love boat rides? Happy Weekend to you. 🐾🐾
Oh so gorgeous and serene, and wet! Although we just had a rare June rainy day, drought rules the roost around here and all that water is mesmerizing! The girls are adorable, the heat must be so hard on their fluffy bodies, hope they take a dip now and then!
As always, fabulous photos and the puppies are so cute. We’ve moderated temps here in Chicagoland which is fine with me, instead of jumping from furnace on to instant air conditioning. Makes the yardwork pleasant. Hope you continue with some lovely weather! Sa
