Paddling Indian Lake

We had another beautiful, but windy, day today.  We joined our friends for a paddle on Indian Lake.  The paddle was shortened due to high winds, so we only paddled 5 miles, but given the effort required it may as well have been 10 miles.  We paddled down the eastern shore to Norman's Cove where we took a break from the wind, which had been at our backs.  Then we struggled across the lake to the more protected shore to make our way back to our friends' camp.  We had a nice visit over snacks so it was worth the trip, but I'm not sure I will paddle there again if the winds are forecast to be over 10 mph.
