Lake Ontario Kayaking
I am quite relieved to report that my outlook on life is notably improved today, buoyed in large part by improved water quality in the lake here (at least temporarily!) which inspired me to get out there for some communing with nature via kayaking. Here are a few photos I took to share…
The water was extremely calm today, and I found the clarity of the
water along the undeveloped coastline quite stunning in comparison to
what I have been seeing nearer where my parents live.
Along the way I got to observe several Great Blue Herons, a couple
cormorants, many seagulls, and a few fish going about their day.
It was a cool, overcast day and the sky and the water seemed to fade
silently into each other giving off an otherworldly awareness and a
deep sense of peace. I am so grateful for Grandmother Earth. Love and blessings to all!

Those are such beautiful, introspective photos. I love lakes for that reason — when it’s overcast like that, and the water is so calm, they can become like mirrors for your own heart.
It’s good to see another post from you, especially with pictures! Thanks for reminding me to be grateful. There is so much in the world to be grateful for.
I’m glad today is a bit brighter. Great pictures…..I really liked looking at the rocks through the water…..just so pretty.
I love the earth too and am enjoying natures light show as I type.
I live near a river, and I have to say, I’d rather live near water than away from it. There’s just a different feel to areas around water, energizing. Or maybe it’s just because I’m a pisces? lol I saw a heron once, very close to where I live. I think they are prettier than peacocks, or at least more serene and refined…
Looks like a perfect day to me. Judi
Very nice!
Otherworldly is right. That must have been an incredible experience! Thanks for sharing it.
