Summer Breeze, Enchanted Towns

I can’t believe Summer is almost coming to an end !  I spent the majority of it in Florida, and now that I am back home in Wisconsin, I can still enjoy it here in beautiful Door County as well.

Nicolet beach… how pretty is this?!  – photo found in thelandmarkresort.com

I haven’t been able to go this year yet but in one week I am planning to change that.  In the meantime, here are some pictures I took last year during my last visit to Door County, and others found in the internet, so I can share the beauty of such an amazing place with you.  It is so worth the visit!  not only in the summer but during all seasons, my favorites being, Summer and Fall. The views are literally breathtaking sometimes…

Little magic towns of Door County

To give you an idea of the privileged location

Egg Harbour, one of the many charming small towns in Door County.

Eggs arriving for the “Eggstravaganza” in Egg Harbor  -found on villageofeggharbor.org 

Here you can see some of them better!  (Photo: Mary Anderson/For the Door County Advocate )

Do you see the eggs decorated in different colours and designs here? Not really! my photos sucked this time…

Better?! I know! Not my photo though 😉

Charming places everywhere

Nature goes crazy here in the summer, colors are intense and refreshing!

Blessed geography

I’ve found myself having a hard time concentrating lately, more than usual.  I wish I could share more about this magical place now, but I can’t…. It’s been almost a month since I posted so I wanted to break the ice again, just pictures.

Whitefish Dunes, my favorite beach in Door County. To the left, within walking distance, is Cave Point.  Photo found in the internet. I’ll come back later on to add the credit when I find it.

Floating above the wreck of the AUSTRALASIA in Whitefish Dunes State Park, again, not my picture. I apologize for not providing the source, I collect them almost frantically and it is very hard to keep track of where they came from…

A Walk to Remember

Walking in silence. Alone. At dusk… awakens the senses, the need for awareness, the hunger for understanding… introspection, stillness inside while in movement, I can listen to my heart and actually hear what it is saying, realize what my soul knew already … searching for unspoken words to sooth my spirit, searching for a connection to the Universe, a connection to one’s self…

Walking in silence. Alone. At dusk…. Awakens the senses, the need for awareness, the hunger for understanding…

…Introspeccion, stillness inside, while in movement, so I can listen to my heart…

…and actually hear what it’s saying, realize what my soul knew already…

…Searching for words to sooth my spirit.  A connection to the Universe, a connection to one’s self
