It was a long time coming because we had to wait for a minor surgery to heal, but the day finally arrived!
It couldn't have been better, oh wait, it could have been just a tad cooler but 83 was certainly do-able.
With a day off from school, we loaded up the little car and headed up the road, 40-45 minutes, maybe
35 miles, so close it still amazes me.
The viewpoint before we drop down to the lake


as we drive in and pass a dumpster, we see this guy, there were actually two but they got nerveous
as I approached and one flew off. They are vultures.

this looks like a good spot

getting all the necessary stuff together

and away we go.....







and whats a boat trip without a dip in the water to cool off

Think somebody enjoyed this

The lake from the opposite end, another viewpoint

on the way out I stopped and took this pic cause every now and then you see a mountain thats yellow, makes me
think of sulpher, and perhaps these hills are full of it, I don't know.

This is my really favorite picture of Maggie, she's alert, curious and slightly panting in a happy way.

I think she likes this kayaking thing I know I do, thanks Tina.

Wonderful Alice! Looks like fun!

Amazing the things and places so close to home, isn't it? And I love how much Maggie is enjoying all of it!

Great adventure and pics! Looks like a great place to kayak.

Great fun

how neat that looks sure didn't realize that you have a lake there
there's a couple of lakes around Yuma you might enjoy exploring as well
see you this winter

What a great way to spend your day off. New way to have adventures and destress from work.

What a gorgeous lake! Great pics of you and your furbaby too, looks like a great time.

Just ask Liz and Nan. When you have a kayak you begin noticing where potential bodies of water are, everywhere! The pictures say it all. Everything is as it should be. I love that Maggie took to it so well.

What a wonderful day for you and your Maggie and I see many more in your future with a great kayak.... I love kayaking...

So glad you had a great day and the monsoons didn't catch you. We got a drip of rain and heavy winds.

Glad you had such a wonderful day!

I see a trip to Phoenix in my near future before it gets to chilly! Is there a cg there, Alice?

yes, and also a campground at Tortilla Flats, which is at the other end of the lake, opens Oct 1. I'll check into all that.
