Beach Walk

CIMG6416-001

We had another sunny weekend and on Saturday I was out at the House outside town again, and took time to also go for a walk, starting at the beach closest to us and walking along (partly through the woods because one cannot walk by the waterside all the way) to the next one.

Himalayan Balsam – ‘jättebalsamin’

The water in the lake is low after the long dry summer. When the water level  is high, it’s not possible to pass dry-shod here (the area to the right is a private garden). But just now it is.

This beach is on the far end of the long, narrow lake.
Even when the water level is “high” it’s still very shallow waters here (which makes it a popular beach to visit with small children). And just now it makes for great reflections of the sky on a day like this :)

The tall pine trees with their long visible roots always remind me of the Ents in The Lord of the Rings.

I've always said that I'd find it very hard to live far from the sea but having water such as the lake is a good alternative. I'd completely forgotten about the Ents (which is ironic given that I share with them the attribute of ponderous thinking).
