Rainy Day at Gerber

Day 14 (7/26/09)
It was a very windy day so we decided at noon instead of making the weekend a total wash we would go to Gerber Lake again. We figured it would be least effected by the wind and offer some entertainment. I am starting to think I should have named this the Gerber Lake Project. We have always wanted to go beyond, what we have come to call, the scary bridge because we were going to have to undo our seats and slide through on our backs. It turned out to not be as scary as we thought but pretty much left us on the other side with the water to shallow to go further. It was fun though and out of the wind. It turned out the wind was the least of our problems. As we came back out on to the lake from the river it started raining. We kayaked under some trees and waited out the worst of it (no there was no lightning). After the rain the lake got perfectly calm but the fish still refused to bite. Eileen got some great pictures and video of a Green Heron however. We never fail to have fun at Gerber but we do want to find something new. It looks like we are off to the Kettle’s.
