Spring Kayaking

On a good day I'd say watching an osprey circling Findley Lake from our kayaks would be enough. But we also saw it dive, catch a fish, and take its prey to a perch in a tree. Before that we'd given up on finding our usual herons and had settled for several groups of turtles. It was a nice couple hours of kayaking - and just before the rains hit. And we ended the day with a possum visiting our birdfeeders.

This has been an odd spring break. Normally we'd have gotten out of town but this year the combinations of jury duty, a major school technology project (fixing the high school media center lab) and Nicki working at the Conservatory kept us in town. We didn't even do any special dinners out. We did do two student concerts at the college. But we didn't do any traveling. We'll blame this on the cost of gas?
