| Early Morning Kayaking |
It's a beautiful morning, as once again, I was awakened by fishing boats, roaring off to their fishing spots. The sun was just peaking over the hills, the lawn was thick with dew, and it was 59 degrees outside, a bit of a chill in the air. It's supposed to be sunny all day, again, with no rain, so I will spend a couple of hours watering the lawn, probably this evening after Lloyd and Vi leave for Painesville.
We had a simple dinner last night, pea meal bacon and eggs, my favorite breakfast meat, somewhat like Canadian bacon, but more like a pork chop with a crust of pea meal. We spent most of yesterday on the dock reading, sunning, and took a long boat ride up the lake, to the Viking Club, though we did not dock, just drove by it. The lake was busy but not as busy as one would expect on such a beautiful Saturday afternoon. There seems to be no doubt that traffic and tourism is down this summer, a result, no doubt, of the economy.
We also took a long, early morning kayak trip down almost to Snug Harbor and back, a good direction to go in the morning because the sun is at your back most of the way, highlighting the coast line. Lots of weeds as we paddled, it seems worst every year. Some areas I wonder how the people get their boats out off their docks. The weeds are that thick, up to the surface, and there have been no cutters in sight on this part of the lake. They seem to have been exclusively down at the south end.
