Idyll with still life ~ Taylor Pond Wild Forest, NY - in the Adirondack Park • click to embiggen
A 4 mile paddle to the end of Taylor Pond - 8 miles from our house - brings one to a rather idyllic section of wild forest where a primitive campsite can be found where upon one can idle away, say, 3 nights and 4 days within earshot of laughing loons, hooting owls, screeching eagles, water-slapping beaver, and croaking frogs (to name just a few melodious delights). So the wife and I + some family and a friend made the paddle, set our motors on idle, and set about idling away.

Nicely rendered scene. The book and the drink suggest you spent some time sitting here, looking out over the water.

One thing caught my eye: the notch in the trunk of the right-most tree ... looks a little surreal.
