Sunset at Clear Lake, IA


Saturday night we decided to drive to Clear Lake, IA after eating in Mason City, IA. It was such a beautiful evening, we had our wonderful neighbors with us Brenda and Dale. Having neighbors like them is so great, God blessed us neighbors whom we can laugh and have fun with.

Once we got to Clear Lake we could see there was some action in the City Park so we parked the car and took a stroll over to see what it was all about. The park was packed with people of all ages, lawn chairs, blankets, benches and picnic tables were being used by the many people enjoying the music and beautiful weather. I don't know who the band was but they were very good, playing some songs from the 70's which I grew up with and many others.

As we got there the sun was just setting and I couldn't resist taking a picture of the beautiful sunset over the lake. There was a very slight breeze so the water was quite calm, sails boats gliding over the water so quiet you couldn't hear them. We walked over to the beach front and sat on the wall for awhile. The air so fresh and smelling of the the lake water, every so lightly lapping at the docks. We could not have asked for a better night.

This is a picture of the sunset at Clear Lake, IA. I just want to sit and look at it and feel all the wonderful feelings of the evening. Fun, laughter, relaxing, and taking in God's beauty. I am so ever thankful.
