Visions of Eagles...

Paradise Cove is a magical place....

This morning as I sat in my easy chair enjoying my first cup of coffee I saw an eagle swooping down low over the water, then landing in a tree on the other side of the lake.  I realized that he had caught a fish and was now enjoying his breakfast as I was enjoying mine.  I sipped my coffee and reflected on the simple pleasures of living close to nature....

Welcome to Paradise Cove...

On a small lake in Western Washington there is a place we call Paradise Cove. A lone eagle soars overhead. Deer glide silently through the stands of trees. The sunlight shimmers on the still water through the morning mist.

With the inspiration of nature all around us, we work in our gardens and our studios...a haunting melody whispers over the water from the flute makers' workshop.  Two friends create handmade pieces of wearable art.  The colors and textures of the lake and trees as the seasons change become our palette. Family gathers to share the bounty of our garden.  Life is good...
