Where did the name "Dragonfly
Gardens" originate?
The sound of nature waking up on summer mornings beckons me to enjoy a peaceful
start to our day on the dock. On warm days, I sit and listen to the loons and
grebes call across the lake while the eagles and ravens ride the breeze above
me.
Blue and I were enjoying the
performance one morning when I observed her swat at a passing dragonfly,
knocking it into the lake. As I sat there debating whether to wade into the
water to save it or to let the fish have breakfast, another dragonfly swooped
down and caught the drowning friend in its grasp. They flew a distance together
before they separated and then came back across the dock and into the woods.
I was astounded to watch an
insect save the life of another fellow insect.
It was the day we decided to
name our fledging dream of a bed and breakfast establishment – Dragonfly Gardens
– as a remembrance of our beautiful little friends.
