Canoeing in the Yard

This spring the “ponds” in our yard are barely deep enough for some canoeing. This was the evening activity for the Blessings this week. They started out in this small pond.

Then someone got the idea to move to a deeper pond, so a portage was necessary.

Then I hear a four wheeler arrive and I hop in to ride with Benjamin.

We rode through the deeper pond and caused a little wake for the canoers.

One final posed picture. How fun is canoeing in your yard? Won’t last much longer though as each day the ponds get a little smaller.

  3. It looked like fun! The pond at the top is almost dried up so they had two or three good days of that and now it is gone!

  4. When I show my kids these pics, they are going to be so envious of that canoe! Looks like a boat load of fun!
