After all that snow last week I thought it would be fun to visit the lake, like we did last summer. This was a wonderfully warm and sunny day last September - everyone was enjoying the lake.
It is Silver Lake County Park, about an hour away - there is picnicking, swimming, boating, camping and snug little cabins to rent.
Peaceful and calm. The buildings across the lake are the lodge and a larger cabin that groups and families can rent.
Some boys were enjoying a day of jumping off the dock . . .
Splash!
Getting ready for a kayak ride . . .
Lots of kayaks and canoes that day . . .
The view from our picnic table . . .
Taking the dog along . . .
I was hoping to see a hawk in this old dead tree - we had seen one before, but not today, just the lovely old tree . . .
Ahhh summer, where are you planning a picnic next summer - never to early to start planning.
