kayaking

Kayaking along the lake shore is much prettier than I can get it to be in pictures. I took this shot and skedaddled out of there, the mosquitoes were so bad.

On the way to go kayaking I found a peacock feather along the road. I didn't know that they lived around here.

Pene and I went walking down to the road to get the mail. We nearly stepped on this guy on the way back. Mom answered the barking and yelling and it was then at least half an hour of jumping back and pictures (it's hard for the camera to know where to focus when I keep jumping around)
and containment attempts.
And I wonder why I don't get everything done...


When we moved the bucket to the grass, the contained reptile easily exited beneath the edge. He's now on rodent control duty up at the sheds. And I am brushing through all the tall grass before I step down.
