    As soon I saw the water in your photo Georgian Bay popped into my mind. The water there is always crystal clear.

    I know how it feels to come back from vacation (or in my case any roadtrip, since I guess I'm on a permanent vacation)....the mixed blessing of digital photography is being able to take zillions of photos.

    Beep is adorable in that beautiful water and I can well believe it is cold. Were you the only one who got the bug bites? That usually happens to me and nobody else.

    That water looks great - I think cold is not an idea that kids really understand! Both of mine would rather freeze than get out of the water!
