Kayaking...

Another glorious day off today. While Joan puttered around the coach, I took the Hobie out for some fine kayaking... light breeze, morning temps in the 60s, bright blue sky... perfect!

Heading out of the marina...


Then out towards those beautiful mountains; islands to pedal around, I had the water almost entirely to myself...


A great view of Waterfall Canyon. Nearly 7 miles away... can you see the cascade and the horsetail falls?


Then out of the main part of the lake and poking around the bays and through this shallow passage...


Back to shore, out of the water, and into the truck. Easy.

Joan and I drove down to Signal Mountain Lodge for a leisurely late lunch, then some cat walking. Nice day off.

Well, mostly. Joan had to go in late this afternoon to help close. One of the "perks" of management. On the way to take her to the marina, we came across these nice folks...


Dave and Ginny, from the C-Dory Will-C, all the way from Pennsylvania. They will be staying at Colter Bay for a few days. We didn't take a lot of their time, since they were in the process of getting their boat ready to launch. We also got to meet their furry companion, Lucy... all 55 pounds of her; no photo, yet, but I'll work on that.

It was just the C-Dory infusion I have been needing. I talked to a couple last week on a CD-22, but they had never heard of the C-Brats and "... didn't do much with computers." It's surprising how that forum tends to make you feel like you have so much in common.
