We replaced our little canoe with a new row boat. Why?
Well, the canoe was getting a little worn on the bottom and we felt it wasn't safe enough to paddle up the river with our cameras.
(You know our life is centered around our picture-taking!)
What we bought is called a "jon boat." It's not cute or attractive, but it is sturdy, wide, flat-bottomed and very functional. Perfect for taking photos on the shallow river.
Here are two photos of what we saw on the first, "splash down" cruise:
A swan nest...it was huge! The nest seemed to be guarded by two geese. ???~~~~~
The neighbors dog....cute little puppy who loves to jump into the water and swim after the ducks. Also...????
Anyway, it was a wonderful, first cruise!
