A day at the lake with friends


Last night we drove up to Mr & Mrs [livejournal.com profile] evrgreen's house in New Hampshire.
They live down a dirt road off of another dirt road. So, not the city.


Both they and their dogs seemed happy to see us.


Today we had a nice breakfast and then moved into their lake.


For many years we have visited them and swum in their lake. But, today we had the underwater camera with us!


So, we can demonstrate that those fish like biting our legs and it isn't just our imagination.


They don't seem to have seen an underwater camera before and were not shy about checking it out.


Other than get nibbled by fish, we did swim around some. Several of us tried the dolphin floating thing, but it wasn't easy to ride.


Those who tried spent a lot of time underwater.


The camera also let us see the things we've been standing on for years and had only felt with our feet before. (Sometimes to the detriment of our toes.)


The dogs needed to be chaffered across the lake.


And still the fish experimented with our legs as fish food.


For dinner we went into Concord to a BBQ place. When the dogs heard where we were going, it became a challenge to leave them behind.


But, we did manage it. And, the food was very good.


On the way home, we saw a pair of random shoes in the Walmart parking lot.

Fearing we may have fallen into a Torchwood episode, we headed back to their place where my wife made cookies.

That little bugger had just finished biting me in the thigh

cheeky devil. Maybe he thinks he is a piranha.

These are such lovely photos, I would love to live in such a green area! The underwater pictures are awesome too- especially the fishy ones :) so cool!

Sounds like a very nice beginning to the weekend.

We really enjoyed having you guys up to visit, in spite of our frisky fish! Maybe it was the BBQ that they smelled coming out of our pores?

Hope you make it back home OK - looks like some big thunderstorms are rolling in soon!

We did drive home though it. Glad it didn't hit while we were in the lake!


Thank you for having us up! It was great!
