Mt. Pleasant Classical Academy

One day on our vacation to northern NY state this past summer, we decided to spend a leisurely day boating around our pond. MK took his fishing poles and SK paddled him from one spot to another. MK didn’t catch anything this day but that really didn’t seem to matter to the boys. We could hear them chatting, and just enjoying each other’s company.

We saw lots of ducks, loons (impossible for me to photograph) and geese.

We also saw an eagle fight an osprey, what a sight!

Remember that photo of DH reading? Well, this is the just the spot where I caught him reading. Relaxing. How dare he! LOL!!

I on the other hand am just relaxing and watching MK fish:

What better playground for kids? The kids love to explore this rock island even if it isn’t that large of an island.

But we left this spot and continued our venture along the unpopulated side of the pond.

What a big, beautiful pond to kayak on.  There really are only a few other folks out enjoying the water on any day so you really feel like it is your own pond.

Little did we know what was around the next bend in the pond or what we would find in a little cove. Stop by tomorrow to see.
