    Thought OMG! SNOW in July? She just put the sled away.

    Did you have a furry co-pilot on board the boat with you?


    We had snow in June, but not in July. Several days of frost, but no snow.

    No, they are snow dogs, not water dogs!

    Beautiful pictures! I love lakes, and this one looks so peaceful, like the perfect place to relax. Do you live there?

    And the quality of some of the photos is brilliant, especially the second one looks very professional. Which camera did you use?

    The lake is about a 15 minute walk from my house. It's off the maintained road system, but you can drive to it too, with a truck. The trail would not be kind to a lower vehicle's undercarriage!

    Those were all taken with my little Olympus Stylus 710. I need a Pelican case before I'll risk taking the Nikon DSLRs in the kayak.

    Lovely photos. With the cold summer, did you at least have fewer skeeters than normal?

    Beautiful photos! I love the wildlife pictures especially.

    Now...do you think you could send some lovely cold weather this way? I'll trade you- today was the 19th straight day of temps over 90 degrees and tomorrow and this weekend are only going to be worse! We could also use some moisture, so at this point I think everyone here would be willing to take all of your snow!!

    Well, there is no spot for her in a single kayak and even if there was, she can't sit still for a second! No way is she going in a kayak...a canoe maybe, Stuart's motor boat sure. My kayak, no way! Unless I wanted to practice my self-rescue techniques!

    Sit still??
    She'd learn!

    Now there's PLENTY of room onna Kayak ...
    she could sit /lay onna bow, or onna stern.

    All ya need is a Dawggie PFD (life jacket) and a Tether Rope to her PFD.
    Tether her to the Bow or Stern ring - so's she can't "roll da boat" if she pulls.

    Load her up on one of the boat decks and paddle out ... when she bails off she's
    on her own --- paddle along side or get "towed" - her choice.
    She WON'T sink or drown - the Doggie PFDs really work.

    When she tires a bit, head into shore and load her back on board ...
    after a few spills and forced *swims* - I'd bet she manages to ride on the deck
    without too much fuss or upset.

    Try it - you both might like it!
