Maple Lake

what a paradox it is that when it rains, it's considered too wet to go swimming.

and I'm on Lake Gate for two weeks in August and a shared one in July.  normally I enjoy the walk down there at the end of the day to close up the gate and again in the morning to open it, but over the years the task has taken on the additional aspect of asking trespassers to depart (the same ones, every day) it is becoming a bit of a chore. 

*sigh* it's going to be a long summer.
