Yesterday I went kayaking for the first time, what a blast! My sister recently built a house at the lake. She bought herself a kayak and very bravely attempted to navigate the lake alone, without any knowledge of kayaking or being on the water really. After a time or two she discovered that she LOVED being out on the quiet lake with all the beautiful nature scenes and wildlife to see. She bought a second kayak and all the gear so that when she had friends visit (or her sister, me) they could enjoy kayaking together. I had so much fun once I got the hang of it and quit worrying about flipping the kayak over. A huge blue heron flew right over our heads, maybe only a couple feet above us.
My sister snapped this picture of the blue heron after he landed (click on the picture to make it big enough to see him). She also got a picture of some geese taking a break and just chillaxin on a small dock floating in the lake.
And finally, a picture of my sweet sister loving life.
