Canoe Report.

7-9-06 VERMONT: Yesterday and today we canoed. Today on Fairlee wtih all the skiers and fisherfolk. The launch site was packed with cars, trucks and trailers. Yesterday we went to Miller Pond on Miller Pond Rd and had the place almost to ourselves. The water is as clear as....hmmm water. Fairlee is pretty clear also. Yesterday we saw a loon near the canoe and watched him make several dives. When I first spotted it out of the corner of my eye, I thought of a seal or otter for a second. Loons are big birds. Got a couple decent pix of red-winged black birds.

Add in a bit more yard work and several gorgeous days.

New blooms: lambs ears, coral bells [I’m a few days late on these two], hollyhocks, and mallow.
