We are up at Lake George NY for a couple of weeks.

We are at Huddle Bay, with the thirty-two mile expanse of Lake George just beyond.

We have been going to the lake for forty-six years.

The avatar I use is actually a watercolor I made of a photo of us sailing past Tongue Mountain.

The photo.

Beautiful, pristine lake. Fishing is great. Everything from from panfish to Lake Trout and land locked salmon.

Beautiful.

Nice to see such a pristine lake.

Our lake is man made by damming the Missouri River around a lot of ag land. Therefore, there is a lot of nitrogen runoff and as a result, often algae by the end of the summer.

Lovely photos, Ray! And great burgee, too. We are on the next lake up, at our summer home on Lake Champlain. One of these days we gotta connect up here somehow!

We haven’t been out on the Mac yet this week, but we did get out on the Tahoe a few times to go for a swim. We’re still recovering from our western adventure with our Scouts. It was fun, but somewhat challenging to 69 year old bodies.

We just got here. Still going over the logistics of a two hour drive north, and then back.
