This nice big shelter is right next to the boat ramp where we launched our kayaks. It was a great place to take a break from kayaking and have lunch. |
Lunch time with great kayaking friends. |
More lunch time |
The happy face of a happy kayaker |
We love Bonnie |
This is our second kayak trip to Mittry Lake
As you can see my truck is full of kayaks. This is how we get all the kayaks unloaded. Kay really likes having all the guys around to unload and load the kayaks. |
It is launch time |
Kay, Terry C, and John E are already in the water. Me and Mark are getting Orin into my kayak. This is the first time Orin has ever been in a kayak. Marty B. is looking to find his kayak. |
This is the first time for Francine to get into a kayak. Here I am trying to get the life jacket to fit her. Orin is looking on wondering if she will like it. |
I am adjusting the foot pegs in the kayak for Francine. |
Marty and Kay Moeller. We love kayaking with our friends. |
Kay's bow view of the lake. The water was very smooth which means no wind, which means good kayaking weather. |
Terry Curtis He is from Canada |
Carol Curtis They both have sea kayaks. |
I get a bow shot of Kay coming through the reeds, followed by John E |
Bill & Lynnette Entzinger who are from Canada. John E. is behind them. |
I am trying to teach Francine how to kayak. She is doing very well and she said she loves it. Hope to get her out there many more times. |
Kay is trying out Marty Bretz's sit on top kayak. It was very comfortable and felt very stable. |
Orin really took to the kayak. I think they are going to buy some when they get back to Nebraska. |

Yeah I know about this resort. It has stunning views. I am glad that you had fun time with your friends at this wonderful place. The local rental halls in Philadelphia are also very pretty and I would love to book one of those venues for my birthday party.
