In all, there were 15 paddlers who ventured out on a windy day at Quennell Lake in Yellow Point. Thankfully, it is very sheltered and safety was never a problem, but it was a little more difficult paddling into the wind. The scenery was great, the white lotus lilies were in full bloom, giant pollywogs were to be seen everywhere, and of course, the usual bald eagles and herons. We stopped for a quick break at the ZuiderZee Resort to stretch our legs, and then headed back. Surprisingly, we managed to do 8.9 miles of paddling on what is otherwise a small lake. Afterwards, 11 of the group met at the Crow and Gate for a lovely lunch. It was a good day! Thanks to Don Poirier for acting as sweep, and also to Linda Hays and John Harlacher for adding photos.
