First Kayak Trip of the Season & Rainbow Trout

Chilly Spring Bike Ride

Finally Green

Finally, Spring has arrived after a long and snowy winter - most snow ever recorded was in 2010. Plants and trees are starting to pop and turn green. Nice short 10 mile ride on the Perky trail this afternoon - the temperature was perfect.
