A Perfect Summer Day

One of those rare summer days when the weather is perfect – not too hot, not too cool. Slight breeze and just a few clouds in a brilliant blue sky. I woke up early and put the Kayak in the Perky – water was clear and smooth as I paddled up to the steel bridge. Fished for about two and a half hours and then drifted back to the landing. Caught only a few small bass and blue-gills, but it didn’t matter…the day was perfect.
Met up with Brian later and went on a nice 8 mile bike ride. Then took the family down to the Skippack for a brief creek walk. Tasha (our Labrador) also went along - a rare treat for her as she has arthritis in her hips and legs. I could tell she wanted to run like she did in the days of her youth. But we kept her on the leash and made he take it easy – she’ll be 13 years old in January. Finished the day with a BBQ and board games…Perfect.
