I thought I could come up with something funny and clever for this picture I got of a duck while out canoeing with my family(FYI 7 people in a canoe will get laughs…).
Then I realized it is six in the morning and I use up all my brain power on my 5 kids.
After I got over my fear of one of my kids dumping us all in the lake the canoe ride was not too bad.
Not calm but not bad.
Also, we may need a bigger canoe.
When I am not sure what else to do but we need a change of pace, we visit the ducks at a local lake.
Sometimes we grab a slushie from Sonic and just drive out there for a quick hello.
Sometimes, like this day. We stay for a picnic.
And take a walk along the path.
Lakes just slow life down and calm you.
At least me.
Now if I just lived in Minnesota I would always be calm because of being surrounded by lakes…
It is nice to have someone else in the family that wants to go somewhere just to take pictures.
The sight of my seven year old with a camera makes me happy.
Geese are big mean bully’s.
We had them when I was a kid and I have never liked them since.
These guys were chasing all the ducks away.
Cementing the fact that geese are evil…
I could spend every evening watching the sunset on water.
So gorgeous.
