Say It Isn't So
It is still warm around here, and the big lake is the warmest it's been all summer. But the humidity is low. The weather is perfect, just the way I like it, but I am not so easily lulled into false bliss. All this is a set up, a preamble, a last hurrah. All this means that fall is coming...and you know what that means.
Frost and crisp morning temperatures and gorgeous fall leaves. Lovely, yes? But this, too, is a set up, a preamble, maybe even a warning: Winter will soon follow.
And that means ice and the dreaded dry suit and torn gaskets and dangerous landings. I tell you, the sky is falling. What to do? Well, some of the folks around here are already planning and reserving camp sites for a September and an October weekend up in Door County. Ha! We laugh in the face of the elements because we know that when it really gets cold, when there is really a lot of ice, real sea kayakers can... 
...retreat to the pool.

I am amazed at how short your summers are and the fact that you are already planning pool sessions.The kids look like they are having fun
A picture of a cute baby may make you feel better. Try posting one. See if it helps.
Well, Mr Joseph, you haven't noticed the upe right hand corner of the blog. Are you also known as Mr. Man?
Yes, I have been known to be called Mr. Man as well. Especially by my mother.
