HNW - Do Your Own thing

HNW - Do Your Own thing

I was planning to post a few more art pieces, but as I scrolled through my photos, I decided I would save that for another post, with another story to tell. Instead, as the skies revert to their 51 Shades of grey like they do in this neck of the woods, I decided I would go to my happy place.

On the water.
In my kayak.
We didn't do that so much this summer. The stars just didn't align for us this year. I started part-time work. He had friends with medical issues to help. So we just didn't make it out there like we like to.
But I thought I would share some of my favorite spots to go here. North Lake is literally our neighbor.

Lake Sawyer has been the most beautiful of excursions with Mt. Rainier looking like you can almost reach out and touch it!


Happy HNW! Thanks for letting me share!

Looks fun! What little kayaking I've done has always left me stiff the next day.

But I's still go with ya, and hope maybe for some mutual rubbing afterwards.

Happy HNW

Oh and while copy pasting the link you posted in the HNW group will lead to this post, it is much easier for all involved if you just post the seven digit code at the bottom of your post here (will it says "To link to this Post ("HNW Do Your Own thing") use [ post 4416827 ] in your messages" - post the word post, the seven digit code and the two brackets with no spaces.

I love the water too....its soothing with magical mystical qualities. I particularly love the ocean and the whole salt water vibe. Those pictures are lovely, lilly pads are fascinating. Your water views are the best....~

Good point! I guess with you along I'd be stiff the very same day we were kayaking. But that would be the good kind of stiff - they kind we BOTH benefit from.

We haven't done that yet. But it is something we want to try. We have so many lakes in our area. Once I counted about 10 lakes in a five mile radius from my house. So its just enjoying the ducks, and herons for now.

Thanks Jajo. I was surprised how they turned out since I was taking the pics in the sun and couldn't really tell what kind of shot I was getting, lol!

Thanks B! It was spectacular that day. You should see Rainier now...hardly much of a snow cap at all!

Kayaking is fun - with 2 even more so

When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.

The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.
