The Lake, and whatnot

Shyam and I took Thesaurus and got out of town for a couple of days.  We found a good deal on a cabin at Fall Creek Falls, a state park about 90 minutes to our west, and jumped on it.  It wasn't a certainty that I'd get to take this vacation...there seems to be a person who revels in jerking the rug out from under my feet, here lately, and I was halfway sure I'd get a call as late as Saturday saying "you can't go on vacation this week."

But I did.  And we went.  A few pics:

The view from our deck.  It was chilly, but not cold this week....

We rented a Fisherman's Cabin, which are built on pontoons out over the lake...


Thesaurus was ready for a vacation....

Checking in was a minor adventure....in years past, you check in at the inn's front desk.  Well, they've torn down the inn to build a new hotel and conference center.  Had to traipse all over creation to find our keys....

Monday, after the rain let up, we wandered out to the actually Fall Creek Falls, which I hadn't looked at for years (if ever).....

It actually turned into a really, really pretty day.

Fog came the next morning.  You couldn't see the other shore.

Compare with above.  The fog stuck around for hours, yet you'd hear construction noises in the mists....


Sunrise this morning.....
