Paddling

Pacific silverweed (native)
SPM took me canoeing on the lake today. We encountered multitudes of dragonflies in the most delicate blue. They resisted being photographed, but their loveliness lingers in my mind. We tied the canoe up next to a mossy log in a sheltered cove for a picnic lunch of pasta salad loaded with veggies followed by plenty of fresh fruit, a perfectly ripe avocado, and a shared Kona longboard lager. We paddled into the wind both ways and even encountered some swells at the very end. Afterwards we did yoga in the grass.
A perfect day.
