Our Day At The Lake!

[Beanie]

<font color=blue>Today we spent the day at <b>Lake Umbagog (Um-bay-gog)</b>, which is half in New Hampshire and half in Maine! The Lake is about 40 minutes from our house. We take our boat out at least once a week in the summer, so the kids can go swimming and have some great sun time! LOL Today I decided to take along the camera and snap a few shots...it is so beautiful and peaceful on the Lake...DH and I are considering renting a cabin for the week and staying up there next summer...the kids really love going!</font>

<b>The first three shots were taken while we were going out to the middle of the Lake...The beautiful Mountain range is what makes this place so special for us!</b>

<b>This is Andrew and John, my DH...John was letting the kids take turns "driving" the boat...of course all they do is go in circles though! LOL </b>

<b>When we stopped for lunch along the side of the banks, DH snapped a couple of pictures of the kids...Andrew was using the Binoculars to locate any wildlife!</b>

<b>Savannah had no idea how to use them no matter how many times I showed her, so she just pretended!! LOL</b>

<b>When we resumed our travels after going swimming and eating lunch, we saw an Eagle pass right over us...It was beautiful to watch it swoop down and up high again!</b>

<b>We decided to take a short trip down the Androscoggin River. This is where you enter from the Lake</b>

<b>On our way down the River, we noticed an Eagle's nest, high in the trees!</b>

<b>Also saw alot of Ducks today, which the kids loved to feed!</b>

<b>The kids were worn right out by the end of the day, but I snapped one last picture of them before we got to shore!</b>

<b>...and of course, all fun things must come to an end, as we left the lake on our way back, I took one last picture of the mountains!</b>

After C.Ann's stories about The Lake, I'm hesitant to open Lake threads now.

I'm glad y'all had a fun time. Great pics.

<font color=navy>I love these pictures. Almost worth it living in all that winter white stuff.

Thanks for sharing the pictures, Beans -- they are great! I would have loved to have seen that eagle.
