If you follow me on Instagram, you may know that I live alongside a river - the backdrop for many of my postings. I don't live in "a van down by the river" a la the famous Chris Farley SNL skits, but I do spend a lot of time there, and am so thankful to have such a beautiful setting only steps from my front door.
This weekend was a beautiful, hot and sunny Summer's weekend. Too hot to bask in the sun, but just right for toe-dipping in the icy river's waters. We had quiet rock-throwing family time by the river's shore, and play time with a group of friends at dusk after a delicious BBQ.
The river has become a part of our Summer weekend routine - tubing, picnicking and wading in its natural beauty.

ReplyDeleteSorry I missed a few weeks, but we were in the wild woods and unplugged. And I am heading out again soon, but will try to get something posted before I leave.
I live in a van down by the river is one of my all time favourite skits and I when I throw that line out there and someone knows what I am talking about, I am thrilled.
ReplyDeleteI am so jealous of the fact that you live so close to the river. What a great backyard. Love the pictures too...
ReplyDeleteThere was a great river running alongside our campsite that we spend hours playing in. You're lucky!
ReplyDeleteI love seeing your river pictures on Instagram. It's just so beautiful. I would sit there for hours and just relax. :) You sit by the river, and I sit by the lake!
