Canoe Day.

7-13-07 VERMONT: We had a faux storm today, thunder and lightening, gusty winds, flickering lights, but no rain. I have been doing lots of small chores and errands, too much trouble to list them all. Yesterday Judy and I took the canoe out on the Ompompanousic and Connecticut Rivers. We saw a few ducks and red-wing blackbirds. We were more pleased to see them than they were to see us. I tried using a kayak paddle instead of canoe paddle. It is much more efficient, but water gets in the canoe. Judy prefers the regular paddle.

New blooms: hydrangea, have I mentioned astilbe? They have been out for a while, bee balm, bind weed, filipendula.


She doesn't look canoe-ish.
