Sometimes, the weather tells you when it’s time to move. Saturday, the last day of our family vacation in Moultonborough, on the northwest shore of Lake Winnipesaukee, it nudged us into action. I arose early and walked out onto the dock to say goodbye to the lake.
The previous two weeks gave us favorably warm and sunny weather, perfect for swimming, climbing, touring, and for doing whatever else may suit one’s vacation pleasure. No complaints there.
Saturday was a beautiful morning, but a chill came up with the sun, and a stack of dark clouds filtered the sunshine onto gunmetal gray water. It was quite a contrast to the conditions of the previous days. Time to pack the two cars and head south!
In mid-August that high up in New Hampshire, nature can quickly remind a person of who’s in charge. It was a one-day teaser that summer is ending and that fall in on its way – time to get back to Bridgewater.
You take life’s blessings when you can and you enjoy them to the hilt, recognizing that behind nature, there is an even larger force at play.
