Some of the neighbors' inflatable water toys, the dock, and the rowboat frame an idyllic summer scene.  Meanwhile, Larry sails the Scorpion on a broad reach near mid-lake.

While the rowboat lies moored just off the breakwater, Larry in the Scorpion, and Michael towing the dinghy are visible as small specks near the far shore.

Either trying to start the old Johnson Sea Horse motor for one last troll around the lake, or back from that last trip of the afternoon...I'm not sure which.

Different strokes

There are two types of recreational personalities at the lake:  The "take it slow" type exemplified by fishermen, and the "nothing is too fast" type exemplified by high-powered speed boats dragging water skiers or kids on inflatables around and around.  The fishermen tend to stay near the center of the lake, and the speeders keep to the edges, making for heavy wakes at times.

Foam flecks on the lake after a windy day.

There were actual whitecaps on the water earlier in the day, when winds were gusting at 30+ mph.

Late afternoon in July.  Crooked Lake, SE Michigan
Some summer days at the lake are cloudless.  Others, like this, put on a splendid show of benign cumulus clouds.  A few have skies filled with storm clouds, but we're unlikely even to be at the lake during those episodes.

Bring a book, a cold drink, and put your feet up.  It's time to relax.  Late afternoon, late June.  For any tree lovers, that's a Cat's Claw locust stretching across the top of the photo, or so I'm told.
