sunset over Fawn Lake one, originally uploaded by Bork Bork Bork.

All good North Woods vacations require a lake. This one was no exception.

While our particular lake was a fishing lake — there was a separate fish-cleaning building on the premises, and the shoreline was weedy and mucky — it had a rowboat and two kayaks, which were used to take would-be swimmers out into the deepest part of the lake.  I am a particular fan of the bob ‘n’ float, or bobbing lazily around the water buoyed by a life jacket.

Climbing back in to the rowboats and canoes in order to get back to shore, however, was a considerably less dignified operation.
