Once in a Blue Moon/Kajakkireissulla
After a hot day, the cool evening called us to the lake.
Time for Captain and mama to pull out the kayaks - first time this summer! Mr. A and Little Miss joined us.
Such a perfect evening. The only thing that would have make it nicer was if the whole family could have gone. (Mental note to start looking for one or two more kayaks on craigslist.)
And if there were no bugs. We were all wearing the special Maine perfume, called Off!
There is nothing quite like silently gliding on a still lake, hearing the loons call. We are blessed.
As we turned around God had another blessing for us in store. A huge moon rising behind the mountain.
I could have stared at it all night.
But was forced to go gaze at the moon from inside the house when the bugs started flying into my nose and ears.
It's Maine.
Beautiful, buggy Maine.

Täydenkuun aikaan järvellä kajakkireissulla, kuikkien kutsuessa toisiaan. En tiedä onko mahtavampaa kokemusta!? Tosin ötökät pitivät huolta siitä, ettei kokemus ollut liian taivaallinen. Mainen kesä on monella lailla samanlainen kuin Suomen kesä!

Beautiful! Kaunista! Tuo melonta olisi mukava harrastus kokeilla, täälläkin on hyvät vesistöt siihen.

Thank you, Sharron and Gayly! Definitely less bugs in August than in June, but they still get us:)
