Fall is here in the foothills and the weather could not be better for paddling. I headed out midday Saturday to a fairly empty lake with a temp of 82 degrees. The water was like glass and the light breeze was refreshing.
I did the power paddle around the island then headed up the canyon. The current was pretty strong for this time of year and gave me a good workout for that last turn to the cable.
I spotted some turtles and others basking in the sun.
And this guy was there to see me out when I left.
Sunday was Apple Hill day. The Foothills and beyond celebrate every fall with the opening of Apple Hill. Wineries, orchards, food, family fun, did I mention food, craft fairs and incredible apple pies, abound at the many orchards. This is FUN for the whole family. We took the little ones for train and pony rides, and the big ones had some fresh made apple fritters. Yeah Fall! Hope this weather holds up for awhile.
And...we are getting a little color here.
Happy Paddling,
