Walking on Water

The weekend started early with a ski run. I am still nursing a pulled hamstring, but I was able to be the driver. Blake did a barefoot run (walking on water) before it started raining. Noel did a slolam run in the rain. We headed back to the dock and headed for the house for breakfast.

Later in the morning the rain stopped and Blake and I moved the deer herd to the pens he had constructed. Blake and Apryl started a deer ranch this past spring. they have seven deer most of which are newly born fawns. They built stalls in a part of their garage and had been bottle feeding them for a couple of months. Saturday was the day to move the herd. We figured out that we could put a fawn in Blake's wake board bag, zip it shut and carry the critter to the pen without anybody getting injured or loose.

Karen and I went to some friend's house for dinner and spent a peasant evening visiting.

Blake and Apryl were out of town Sunday, as were most of our friends, so most of the rest of the weekend was fairly quiet. Sunday afternoon we hung out on the deck, Karen doing needle point and I worked on another water color painting.

In the evening we went for a four and a half mile walk out in the country. I took my camera along and shot some interesting patterns and scenes. With a couple of recent rains most of the lawns and fields had gotten greener. It was also a lot cooler as you can see Karen started out with a sweater. When you have to wear a sweater in mid July you begin to wonder what happened to the summer.

I saw some pretty flowers along the road. All in all it was a nice quiet weekend.
