Kayaking Lower Saranc Lake

We had a great day today. We started at the Lake Placid farmers' market where we got all sorts of goodies. On the drive there we saw the beautiful lupines lining the road.They are especially abundant this year. At the market we met Jini, who invited us to join them for dinner at Charlie's this evening. In between, we paddled on Lower Saranac Lake. We had lunch at one of our favorite spots, atop the rocky bluff on Bluff Island. We paddled among the picturesque islands. We saw lots of iris and some swamp laurel.And we stopped on Eagle Island, where we had never been. Campsite 1 is one of the few on the lake that has a decent landing spot and the view from the campsite was great. The woods behind were full of ferny rocks. When we got home after dinner, we were treated to this view of the flow.
