30 / 365 Drained for Maintenance

We live in a subdivision off Bishop Lake Drive, and I pass by Bishop Lake at least once a day.  Every year or so – at least it seems that often – they drain the lake for dock repairs and who knows what else.  While I always notice the lake, I don’t think I really “see” it until it gets drained.  By then it looks awful. (H ‘s language is a little stronger.)

It’s so easy to simply look over, around, through, or past things that we come in contact with on a regular basis.  Every time I see the lake drained, I appreciate anew how lovely it looks when it’s full… if only I pay attention.
