The last night I was up north, the weather turned calm enough for a canoe ride. We paddled across the lake and through a narrow channel which eventually ends up in Pine Lake – but that was quite a distance off.
As we paddled, the sun moved slowly toward the horizon, sending a glittering sheen over the water. Yellow water lilies dotted the lake – their reflections elongating the stems and thickening the leaves.
Oh, and reflecting on reflections – here’s a photo composed of trees reflecting in the water …
And of the sky in the water …
Beavers had entire apartment complexes in the lake.
So, they invited the heron to come visit.
We floated through the narrow channel …
And off across the lake.
