Description
Canoeing on Pearrygin Lake. Pearrygin Lake State Park is located near Winthrop, Eastern Washington.
Tara and I had gone for a drive across the Northern Cascades on highway 20. It was a Saturday, one day before my scheduled departure from Seattle to Alaska.
It was a beautiful, sunny day and we stopped often for pictures. We also stopped at a lovely place for a bite to eat.
At Pearrygin Lake it was 80F, and watersports activities of all kinds were taking place and people were camping in tents and trailers for the holiday weekend.
After a few pictures we decided to turn around and head back across the Cascade Mountains for more pictures.
This picture was taken on 23 May 2009.
Thank you for viewing, commenting and favs,

A note to this upload. I got my first job as a dish washer (3rd cook) in a summer camp in Northern Ontario (Camp Wabi- Kon, Lake Timagami)because the previous kitchen boy (dish washer) had capsized in a canoe and drowned. I had to take a test to proof that I could handle a canoe. Flip the canoe and right it again and climb in, all while in the water. I have some fond memories taken a canoe out between washing dishes. By myself, a loon scared the hell out of me once, and I got caught several times by winds. Its not easy maintaining direction if one is by oneself. The front of the canoe rides high and catches the wind easily, but no safety jackets. This was in the summer of 1960.Fresh from Germany I pretended I was in Indian country. In that country it was the only way to travel! Sig...
fantastic shot and story!! It was because of Karl May, I suppose.
Interesting story..
I ran white water in a small one once. You sure have to know how to balance but they are great for cutting the water. Fun shot!
very beautiful photo and very nice scene of family outing...Great shot sig!!
There's just something about this image ... it's still one of my favorites from that day! It's been years since I was in a canoe, and it's something I always enjoyed. Thanks for posting this! (Now you won't have to listen to me keep saying, "You're going to post that canoe picture, aren't you?") LOL! It looks even better on my monitor than it did on your camera display!
Jolie photo!
