Getting ready for our kayaking trip to Lake Tahoe. The smoke we have experienced for the last month (from nearby fires) was settling down and we could finally enjoy the summer
outside!

Our big "pod" of kayakers. We met nine other folks at D.L. Bliss State Park to begin our trip.

It was a gorgeous day. The Lake Tahoe water alternated between midnight blue, cobalt blue, turquoise, and mint green. And the sun peaked in and out between rain clouds.

Fun on the open sea. Of course we couldn't resist getting ourselves even
more wet.
