A Perfect Day for Hiking, Splashing, and Sunning

Today was a beautiful day for enjoying the Adirondacks.

While Elise hosted an Internet Radio Show, Barbara and I escaped to hike the trail to Tenant Creek Falls in Hope (NY). This photo is of the infamous "tree on the rock." If you've ever looked at an Adirondack photography book or calendar, you may have seen this tree. The photo is by photographer friend Judy Olson. (Thanks, Judy!)

To cool down, we headed to the Great Sacandaga Lake at the Northville Boat Launch, where Barbara Boo Bear waded ..

splashed ... (She loves water!)

and posed in the posies. (She's getting bigger and becoming quite the ham!)

We ended our afternoon by "sun-napping" on the boat launch. I was awakened by one wet tongue in the ear. (At least Barbara's tongue doesn't feel like sandpaper -- unlike the tongues of the two Smalley Siamese kittens!)

What will tomorrow bring?
