We wanted to go rowing. 30 years ago, they rented rowboats, now they only rent canoes. They'll let 4 in a canoe if the two smallest are less than 40 pounds each. Ours aren't. So the boys rowed and I took the trail. Here they are after their safety lesson, getting into the boat.
We were going to meet up at the end of the lake, but they rowed much faster than I walked! Can you see them in this shot?
It was nice to walk on my own, at my own pace, without stumbling over kids!
It was a cloudy, rainy day, but when the sun came out on the lake, the color was amazing.
Looking back from the glacier end of the lake. We had lunch at the hotel when we all got back together. Remind me to never try a potato pizza with honey and truffle oil again. Even writing it now, I wonder what I was thinking.
Is the water cold?
Poppies!
The storm came in just as we were ready to go. It was thundering and all the canoes had to come in off the lake.
It rained the rest of the afternoon, so we missed the $20 view at Moraine Lake. The color of the lake was beautifully dark teal with the cloudy sky, though. Then it rained through a solo hike I took to the paint pots. But honestly, it wasn't too bad. We laughed through most of it and it wasn't like a hill country thunderstorm, just a nice rain.
