Strange days

Tree of clogs, Sunday, Oct. 7th, Marken, Noord Holland. This quaint little fishing peninsula is located in the area known as Waterland.


My apologies for not blogging much lately; simply juggling too many things at once. I have so much to say, yet no time to say it! Beginning this weekend I hope to kickstart this blog back into action. Thanks for staying the course!

An idyllic scene - fake cow and all. Click to enlarge and check out the gorgeous canal-side garden!

The charming courtyard of a painted wooden cottage for sale in Marken.

What else, but wheels of cheese?!

Echoes of summer.

What enchanting photos! They're simply beautiful (especially that cheese!) A spot of beauty of whimsy. I've missed the loveliness you share and have been a tad concerned. Glad you have just been busy. Take care!

Oh if I saw those large wheels of cheese I would want to bring one home. What a temptation. So happy to see you here this morning when I stopped by. What a very lovely garden too. And I can just imagine buying the sweet painted cottage.

You were on my mind this morning and I am quite glad to hear you have simply been busy ... This post was certainly worth the wait - that garden and those HUGE wheels of cheese make me hungry, very hungry! Take care. Love ya!
