No pics no big TR.. Last week at this time I had just gotten out of the hospital post stent and possible heart attack..And the cardiologist appointment isn't till Tuesday. Was in serious paddling withdrawal but limited to lifting 20 lbs.
Don't know what cardiologist will say but have been walking 3 miles a day ( how boring) biking five. I had to paddle. So hubby and I did paired solo today. Just on a nearby lake. The wind was up..flags stiff in the wind. I probably pulled more than 20 lbs of exertion to get back to the car
But watching a mom loon with her baby.. now teenager size .. was well worth it. Mom was watchful but not interfering.. Soon she will leave her "baby". Baby is testing the environment. It was fascinated by a mooring.. It pecked at it.. (not edible) , pushed it ( not an enemy) and picked stuff off the mooring rope. Baby had no luck trying to tow the rope. Mom just hung around with a "whatever" attitude. Let em try their teenage ways!
Of course no camera.. they were less than a canoe length away.
