Yay! Keep those little ones paddling. What a cutie!

It’s exciting to have the water chasing you. Camping in thé 10,000 Islands, a high tide and a storm brought the water within a foot of the tent. We were on the highest point of the little island. Luckily it stopped rising before it hit the tent.

Is that what it is. Bystander effect. Never heard if it. It explains some of the mysterious situations I’ve been in when I’ve been about the least qualified person to help, but the only one who does. The one that comes to mind was being in the woods with a class of grad students and two...

Lac du Poéte The Disney ride spit me out and into Lac de Poéte with a middling sized bay to the right. This was the very first place I recognized from my trips 30 years ago. Back then, lower water levels made this a muddy backwater, but at the time we were tired and it was the best we could do...

Sounds truly delightful. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent. Looking forward to the next day.

Great photos. Looks like a beautiful place. Thanks for posting.
