Magone Lake was dammed off a number of decades ago. Pristine and very chilly. Last year I dipped in, not this year!

A view from our reading rock, which offered a little bit extra warmth and shelter from the chilly breeze.

It was gopher city out there. A sweet little baby grabbing a meal from momma.

Another momma-young set.
