I definitely am in love with lakes and oceans! I seem to feel a lovely sense of calm when I am in and around water. Having Lake Michigan so close to me in Chicago is such a blessing. While in Toronto recently, I absolutely had to be close to another beautiful Great Lake! Lake Ontario is gorgeous as well.
I took this photo from a restaurant that sits close to the water’s edge. I could have looked out these windows all day. Likened to my view of Lake Michigan, the ever-changing ‘sky paintings’ above Lake Ontario are just as mesmerizing.
Our natural environments can really affect our mood, don’t you think? Despite the frigid temperatures hanging in the air, I didn’t mind, as the coolness provided for a quiet, serene lake.
Cozy sweaters, hot chocolate, and a view like this is fuel for the soul when the winter months are upon us here in the frost-zone!
I hope your Friday is filled with warmth and contentment!
