Today was our day off, and I decided to spend the day on the lake. I took out my kayak and fishing pole and spent the afternoon paddling around on Union Lake, which is located just south of Alexandria. I saw a loon family swimming around the lake, earlier this spring there were two chicks, unfortunately there was only one today.
Even though today was relaxing and fun I will be glad to get back to work tomorrow! There is a lot to do before flowering starts ramping up.
