Catching Up At Home
8/21/21 I'm trying not to drive so much (saving the planet) and just enjoy the beauty at home, so in that vein I decided on a whim to throw my kayak in the car and drive the 1/2 mile down to the lake for a morning paddle. The water was like glass and the reflections were amazing. I could even imagine I was floating in the sky at one point. I was paddling about for only 30 minutes when the peace was shattered by folks and their motors. The waves started and I was suddenly reminded why I rarely kayak on my little lake in the summer. It's way too busy. As I headed back to the boat launch I got to marvel at the silliest giant boat on the smallest lake. Honestly I watched this ocean worthy craft take less than 5 minutes to circle the lake. I really wanted to pull up and just ask "Why?" Anyway back to my garden 10 minutes later for my final cup of coffee in peace.
