Maine-ly relaxing

Starting the day by kayaking on a Maine lake, next to quiet loons diving for food, and by a long run on a forest road certainly makes a great beginning for a vacation day! If you add reading through the whole Sunday New York Times on the porch while drinking chai tea and taking an invigorating swim in the lake before dinner, it is difficult to beat. The weather is absolutely perfect, with a small breeze to keep mosquitoes away and a moderate temperature cooling down at night… This morning, we even kayaked with my daughter across the lake to get fresh muffins (and the daily New York Times) from the local convenience store, making the twenty minute crossing worth every stroke.
