Summer in the Mountains

I actually live in a mountain log cabin. My favorite activity depends on the season of the year. 

The lake turns warm in the summer and it is time for fun lake activities: swimming, jet skiing, and fishing. The scenery is beautiful with flowers (Spanish broom, lupine, and iris), trees (pine, apple, maple, and poplar), and bushes (cypress). Of course no day at the lake is complete without a picnic lunch. Just be careful of those overgrown lupine and iris plants - they seem to be watching your lunch. Also be alert to tree stumps left over from a recent fire.
