Family Fun


It was a beautiful day with many people, including DH and me, enjoying the park. Even though I chided them for getting off the water and docking their canoe before I could photograph them, this family cheerfully agreed to pose for me.  Although Anais, Nick, and Mechelle live close to Como Park  this was their first canoe trip on the lake.  Have a feeling that it will not be the last time!

    I think when my Dad was a young boy he ice skated on Lake Como.
    Can't ask him, he's been gone for many years.
    every time you write about the lake I think about my Dad.
    Lovely photo of your family. I'll bet there are many more canoe days ahead.

    That photo looked so familiar but I knew I hadn't seen it before. Then it dawned on me - there is a certain resemblance to that picture of the farmer and his wife standing straight and narrow with a pitchfork. You know that one, right?
