Cardinal flowers (at least I think that's what they are). They were so beautiful, the brilliant reds against the greens. I didn't expect such color this time of year.

1. I love it when a lake is like glass. Beautiful photos.

2. Thank you! It was a perfect day for paddling,

low winds, cloudy/sunny and only one fishing boat came down the river, but they were respectful of our boats.

3. Beautiful. You had a very lovely area to paddle.

4. Yes, I'm really lucky.

This particular stretch of river is only about a 20 minute drive from my house. And it's so peaceful. No road noise, rarely a boat come down/up river. But then again, we like to paddle on a weekday rather than a weekend, which I'm assuming makes a difference.

We see blue heron, eagles, various birds (depending on time of year) an occasional deer and fox.

Alas, as the raven said, nevermore.

Lovely pictures and beautiful water.

9. I would like to try that some time.

Before I’m too old to climb into a kayak.
