She doesn't have a recognizable registration number on her, and she has seen "better days."
It would be kind to say she is pretty well worn out.... (actually, she's a 'wreck.')
Daddy has tried to find the owner of the vessel...to no avail.
She sat and sat at the edge of the lake...right where she drifted.
Husband and Daddy decided to tow her to the middle of the lake and let her drift...hoping that perhaps the owner might spot her.
After a few days of sitting in the middle of the lake, she drifted back to our lake lot (out of all the property around the lake, she finds her way right back to our lot.)
I think that she drifted back in because she wanted her photo taken.
I am happy to oblige.

Oh my gosh how beautiful. sandie
I'm so glad you like it, Sandie!
:))
And oh such a lovely, lovely, lovely Photo Op she made!!!! Beautiful, beautiful photos! Thank you for sharing...
Now I suppose there is some real-life-reason for her drifting back, to your lake lot. Some kind of water movement, etc., etc., etc. But I prefer to think that she really, really wanted to come to... and come back to, this spot of yours. :-)
Perhaps a lovely story could be conjured up, about her and this...? :-)
You're obviously having fun with this. Maybe the boat likes your company.
And I see you're not buried under snow.
Merry Christmas. Blessings and Bear hugs (from the hibernating Bear).
Thank you! The lovely story, however, would have to be conjured up by you.
:))
Rob...we are not buried under snow, nor will we see one flake...sigh.
Stay warm.
Merry Christmas to you!!
What breathtaking trees! And your cute little boat that seems to have adopted you... I'd just leave him be. Makes for some fantastic pictures, jackie! :-)
We love our cypress trees, Jan.
Thank you for your lovely comments and kind visits.
I was just going to ask what kind of trees those were. Thanks.
The best way to find out who the boat belongs to is to tie it up to your dock. You will have the owners complaining at your door in no time about the theft of their boat lol. I am so cynical.
Your photos are just beautiful. What a sunset.
WOW, postcard shots. the Cyprus set the boat off and the entire setting becomes a great picture. Love the entry, and the subject also. I think sometimes I am a wreck looking for a place to happen also.. LOL
You are obviously meant to keep her there!
What beautiful trees and scenery. You are so lucky to be there.

Lori...good idea about tying the boat to the dock!
:))
Thank you for your kind comments.
Jack...great sense of humor you have; I know that you aren't a wreck waiting for something to happen, but that made me smile!!
Thank you, Maggie.
I send you and Harry love and hugs.
Great photos. Since she returned it is meant for you to haul her out and make a flower bed out of her. She would be lovely with ferns. Peace
A flower bed! What a great idea. Thank you, Lady Di!!
What beautiful sunset photos, Jackie! Looks like you live in a lovely spot.
I guess that boat just wants to be with you.
Wendy...I guess she does want to be here...and here she stays, until..
Thank you, my friend.
I think I figured it out for you...
It was Michael who rowed the boat ashore--Hallelujah!
Love this, Craver!
You are such a clever fellow!!
:))
Love the pictures. We have some beautiful areas here in Arkansas with the cypress trees and they are great to look at. And being adopted by a boat does have advantages. It shouldn't eat too much, and probably age has tempered its wonderlust. It was just looking for a final resting home with friendly, caring folks. - Karen
Love the analogy of adopting the boat. Truly a lovely thought. You are quite the writer, Karen. Thank you for sharing this with me!
That is the spirit of much of photography - keep a watchful eye for what comes "drifting by", And you did :-)
Thank you, RunE...
I enjoy photography so much!
Jackie your photos are beautiful!!! :)
Cindy...that means a lot coming from such a good photographer as yourself.
Thank you, my friend.
