Kayak Sisters

There are days
when you just have to
stop
and go
kayaking

today was one of those

Cheryl and I
paddled across the inlet
to Strathcona
drifted along edges
ducked under docks

pulled up on the beach

at Deep Cove
carried the paddles to

Honey's for lunch
had a rolly polly donut (of course)
then into the kayaks
along the other shore...
back to our cove



hot hot sunny weather

late in the year
water so clear
we could see 20 feet down

like kayaking in a glass bottom boat

watching crabs clawing along the sand
purple seastars dotted the ocean floor
and spread out on rocks
fish swimming below
like kayaking in an aquarium

very fun!
