Cruising down the river - Part 2

Elena, Catherine and I spent some quality time on the river last week. It is such a joy. We followed our usual route - paddling upriver to the dam, checking out the osprey nest, looking for turtles and birds, and then drifting downriver back to my place. Lovely day!

This post has a lot of pictures so that you can share the journey. Enjoy.
