The Many Tales of Water and Critters What more could You ask for?

Good morning and welcome to my post for

SATURDAY'S CRITTERS

and I'm posting to City Daily Photo

My post today is all about water, be it a lake or river and I begin from lakes in Minneapolis, and surrounding suburbs. The photo below is from Centennial Lakes in Edina.

Beautiful sunny day!

Ahh the sweet face of an owl what does he see that perhaps you and I are missing?

A most curious creature the owl. A bird that stays awake while the rest of the world sleeps. I find it so interesting that they can see in the dark while the rest of the world is dreaming.

What we do is wonder, as we're calm and feeling a gentle breeze and maybe, just maybe you'll feel a tug on your line. That's when the real fun happens.

My grandson fishing on Lake Minnetonka in Wayzata, Mn.

This was yesterday on Latsch Island a few floating houses on the Mississippi River. It's an area those desiring to live off the grid have made it their home since the early 1970's. 

"We're all on the same boat, in a stormy sea, and we owe each other a terrible loyalty." 

Also, from yesterday an exhibit from the MMAM, Minnesota Marine Art Museum

Those first photos were sunny, and summery. Yesterday was not as lovely. Early morning began biting cold without gloves (while taking pictures) and a rainy-snow mixture covered the roads all the way to Winona, Minnesota and grey skies all day. 

I took these two photos yesterday at Prairie Moon Sculpture Garden just after Fountain Hills, Wisconsin.

"I will return here again, in the summertime."

The story behind the Pineapple Fountain in Charleston, SC

Pools and pups what's more fun than that?

Frankenmuth Michigan a city my family enjoyed many times throughout the year, not just at Christmas either. Frankenmuth is a small little village with German influence and appears like it jumped out of a storybook! 

Hastings can you tell? If you're from Minnesota or Wisconsin yes you can!

Lyra and her pup Athena!

Stillwater, Minnesota

In case you're wondering, yes Athena loves the water and floaty toys!

On my first trip to Charleston, SC.

Wayzata, Minnesota

Seriously funny!

Oops! It's all fun and games until someone falls off the floatie. 

This is about as far as Artemis will go inside the pool. 

Don't you feel the call of the water urging you to come?

Arbor Lakes, Maple Grove, Minnesota

Oldie but goodie! What's more fun than playing in water? The secret which is not so secret after all is that most of the human body is water, with an average of about 60%. No wonder we're drawn to it.

Thanks for stopping by and sharing your thoughts. 

Take good care you.
