Quite a nice evening on Waldron Lake. We had our typically kayakers rain aversion, as the rains stopped about the time we arrived and stayed away during our time on the lake. Beautiful evening, calm waters - and great cookies (and buckeyes!) afterwards (many thanks again to Louise!) We had 10 boats and 11 paddlers … Continue reading 8.29.23 Waldron Lake Paddle

Comfortably warm temps, a pretty sky, nice waters, and (later) a beautiful sunset! Far more special than the paddle conditions were the paddlers present. It was … Continue reading Sylvan Lake 10.1.2019
