Nope..it's a kayak, but I got the title stuck in my head and decided to use it anyway. This is Echo Lake which is situated in Franconia Notch. It's one of the coldest lakes I've ever had a chance to stick my toes in !!

Canoe canoe?? (Remember the ad for the cologne?? :0) That bright blue sky and 'canoe' are just popping with the deep greens and clear (cold) water. Lovely post PJ! ~Mary~

So you didn't go swimming there, I presume ;-) I'm not sure, perhaps I would have cropped the shore in the back out, to draw more attention to the kayak? Anyway, I like this image very much, it reminds me of a summer camp many years ago!

Oh, yeah! I saw this and had to comment. Wonderful, PJ. It so reminds me of my sweet Lake Morey. And that shock of blue adds just the right accent. I'll pretend it's a canoe, lol.
