Entry in a Nature Journal (because the challenge was to spend 10 minutes in nature and journal about it)

Weather
-overcast, gray skies

-cool but not cold

-tiny bit of drizzle in the air

I See

-fast ripples on the lake

-plum colored tree leaves

-a bare branch pointing at the shoreline

-empty benches and picnic tables

-the shell of the boat lift, like a skeleton

-green and brown spikes of grass, like bedhead

-tall bullrushes, brown, gentle graceful movements like a hula dance

-trees, deep green, lime turning to lemon, magenta inside

-an empty wooden cross, surrounded by flowers

I Hear

-Rustling leaves, sounds like gentle waves on a beach

-distant motor sounds from the road

-low thrum of a train going away from us

-a plane overhead, high pitched at first, burning out fuel

-birds singing in different songs and pitches, like parts in a choir

-a golfcart, someone working nearby
