Fall fishing has my heart đź’ś

We spent the weekend in the backyard adventuring and having fun! We had an early start on Saturday morning to make sure our lines were in the water for sunrise. The fog was thick and beautiful and it was a magical boat ride!

Sunday we went out for an afternoon of Brook Trout fishing! We brought the portable trolling motor and lithium battery and spent a few hours cruising around in the sunshine catching little yearlings! We were watching them jump right out of the lake like bass and they were curiously swimming right up to the boat. Rie caught a couple footballs of course!

All in all it was a great and astoundingly beautiful weekend on the water đź’ś

It’s not quite the season of the sticks but I’d say this seasonal transitions is one of my favourites. It’s like a commercial break between summer and fall that’s reminding you of all the beautiful things that exist in Mother Nature. A true Canadian heritage minute!

And the transition into fall is a lot like falling asleep. It happens slowly at first and then all at once. Then before we know it the gales of November arrive and the water freezes to the windshield and the boat ropes are frozen and the days are just as cold as the nights. But we will cross the cold frozen bridge when we get there!

I am definitely unlikable if you hate things like long forest walks that only bring you a short distance because I am so mesmerized by Mother Nature. Or maybe it’s because of my need to make everything whimsical-maybe it’s the skinny dipping, the desire to mimic bird sounds, my plethora of useless trivia or my love of laying on my back watching the stars twinkle.

I might rub you the wrong way if you don’t like late night texts telling you the northern lights are putting on a show or a voice message where I passionately share my new musical obsession or the book that is so beautifully written it inspires me to write more.

It could be because I send dozens of pictures every week of beautiful trees and flowers. Maybe you don’t want to see pictures of my cat sleeping peacefully in my lap or my dog sitting in the boat with me.

If you are scared to be loved deeply and loudly and without condition then ya I don’t blame you for not liking me.

But the thing is it’s ok. I’m not for everybody and not everyone is for me 🤷‍♀️

Life is strange because joy and sadness can co exist at the same time. Which if you ask me is pretty beautiful. But I am going to choose to focus on the joy so here are some pictures of the joyful moments from this past week!

You would load your kayak onto a truck or car so why not another boat?

I had the best end of August day yesterday! I was so incredibly busy this summer that I feel like I didn’t really enjoy summer. Which as someone who thrives in the hot summer months makes me feel anxious and stressed out.

BUT yesterday was so perfect, calm and warm that I decided to end August the way you should-on water. I heaved my kayak into a boat for some mid afternoon paddling up the lake. I noticed a ton of bass, pike and minnows while I was in the kayak so I decided to head back with fishing gear after supper.

Fishing in a boat by myself isn’t something I ever do but I’m working on gaining some independence in the boat since Rielly has been getting busier and busier with his guiding. Anyways I only caught a handful of tiny bass but I had a lovely time on the water with my doggie watching the sunset! And then when Rielly got home after dark he scooped me up in his boat so we could watch the moonrise. It was spectacular!

I don’t think an end of August Sunday could be better honestly!
