WOW! It has been almost 2 years since I posted the last time and that doesn't seem possible that time has flown by that fast.
Finally got the kayaks out and headed to Peacham Pond. It was a great day; hot and humid to start, but then the weather started to break, the breeze picked up and it was just perfect. The sun was hot, but the air was just warm.
Peacham Pond is a good place for a relaxing paddle. Lots of homes so not a lot of virgin wilderness, but on a weekday, the boat and people traffic was non-existent so it was a quiet afternoon.
We explored the quiet coves that dot the left side of the pond. Spent about 3 hours paddle slowly and exploring the nooks and crannies. Saw a Gray Jay (first for us) and a HUGE snapping turtle. We also saw and heard two Loons; one popped up in front of Du's kayak and never moved until she was about 10-12' away from it.
In every cove there were blue water iris. Very pretty addition to the Pond.
This is a great place for an afternoon kayak. Especially if you get to go to Rainbow Sweets for a snack or meal afterwards!
