    Mimi and I went for a Kayak ride out on the lake. Following are some photos that I took while out there.

    Ahhhh Tom you and Mimi live in a wonderful part of the countryside. How I'd love to wake up to views (and wildlife) like yours. It's lovely to see Mimi kayaking as it means she's almost back to her former self.
    Your shots of the waterlily are just beautiful. :-D

    Thanks, I hate to admit it, but my skills maneuvering a kayak, while I'm maneuvering the camera, while trying not to tip the rather tippy kayak, well,---- I ran over the poor flower. I think it is ok, but I got yelled at by Mimi, who was nearby, watching my rather clumsy attempts to get in close for the shot.

    What a beautiful and serene looking place. I know it must be wonderful to see the sunsets, sunrises,a full moon reflecting off the lake and all the wildlife around. A little piece of heaven on earth. Thanks for the kayak trip.

    Wow, so pretty. Makes me wish I was there. With someone else paddling the canoe that is!
