Yesterday [ Sunday ] the sky was clouded but it was warm and a perfect day for the outdoors. We went to the dam and spend a lovely day swimming and kayakking. This is our son Nathan enjoying the day
Thanx to everyone for commenting and voting on the Farm Dam - I was surprised by the reaction
Have a brilliant week

A nice happy picture of a very happy Nathan thoroughly enjoying himself Herman, just one point, he should be wearing a PFD (Personal Floating Device) such is mandatory here in Canada.

Your son is obviously enjoying himself immensely and no wonder, canoeing in such a wonderful setting with those mountains looming beyond.
I rather like the Mod. offered with the selective colour retention, Herman.

Great shot of your son and the wonderful moment he's having I love the movement in the end of the oar thing. V2 is just breathtaking. WHAT a gorgeous view and made even more majestic by the kayak showing the scale of the backdrop.

Like his Father, a handsome young man! How do you get such clarity? In relation to your re-location; my next door neighbour is already packed and eager to do a house swap with you, all you and yours need is warm clothing Wink
