Eagle and I went for a paddle on Lake Wingra this afternoon. Several Madisonians had the same idea. Summer watersports have begun.
A breeze kept flies and mosquitoes at bay, dragonflies did their bit to perpetuate their species.
Just as our two hour canoe rental ended, we felt water drops on our arms. No one else fled to shore, what does wet matter to someone who’s fallen from a stand up paddle board three times already…

It looks like fun. I’m not much use at paddling but I love to be near water 🙂 🙂

Thanks, you could be the “Cleopatra” in the center of the canoe 🙂 It’s relaxing to be near water, I agree.

Never saw a yellow pond lily close up like that. How interesting to look inside! Also loved the clouds. Favorite outdoor activity is walking — year-round.

Thanks! The flower interior was surprising to me too. Walking is wonderful year round, so great to be out in nature.
