Rainy Day at Waldo

Day 24 (9/19/10)


The Start of Fall

We had been waiting for a nice weekend to get out kayaking and it looked like today was supposed to be the best of the weekend. We had first planned on camping at Mauthe Lake until we heard the forecast for rain on Saturday and clearing for Sunday. As it turned out it cleared Saturday afternoon so we were psyched for Sunday. We woke up to a cloudy somewhat rainy morning. We had been waiting for so long though that we decided at noon to go for it anyway. Because it was close and we were unsure of the weather we went to Waldo. When we got there it started sprinkling but by the time we got everything ready it had stopped. As we worked our way up the lake it stayed dry. It is always fun kayaking on Waldo. You can see the fish, mostly suckers, scooting out of the way leaving mud clouds in there wake. Occasionally you catch one by surprise and you hear them thump of the bottom of your boat. The colors are starting to change so it was quite enjoyable. It started to drizzle on our way back and continued to get worse so we made a mad dash for the truck.
