The most beautiful place on earth. It is so peaceful and calm there. It was a great afternoon spent at Burnaby Lake with my sister. A day that I really needed. I have been caught in a rut lately. Feeling sad and depressed but an afternoon spent here makes it all go away. Being out in the sun taking in all the beauty, listening to all the sounds has a way of relaxing you.
Seeing all the wildlife helps you regain your perspective on life. The ducks, geese, chipmunks, birds, dragonflies and the bullfrog that I caught. He sat in my hand and looked at ease as he stared up at me. Almost as if he was giving me some comfort. I wanted a picture of him, but as soon as I pulled my blackberry out he jump out of my hand and hopped away. I bet he is sitting on his lily pad on the lake, eating some flies and watching the sun set behind the trees. He's my new buddy and I will go back to visit him.
Walking on the pier staring out over the beaver dam and the lake rejuvenated my spirits. And picking Salmon berries with my sister brought back memories of our childhood spent berry hunting in the creek. It was a good day and I can't wait for the next one spent at the lake.
