Every now and then, my friend Tara will call and ask me to join her on her next kayak outing. I always say yes because it’s a chance to see the shoreline from a different perspective, take in the beauty of nature, and enjoy the peace and quiet that being on the water brings. I grab my camera and she grabs her dog, Sedona.
Sedona is a Jack Russell Terrier mix and just the right size to fit in a kayak without taking up much space. Her special spot is on the front of the boat where she can see everything ahead of her, and personally, I think she likes to lead the way.
Our latest outing took us to Northwest Bay on Lake George on a beautiful afternoon in September. It was a quiet stretch of water that led into Lake George where we saw herons, mountainsides, and an active beaver swimming and slapping the water. Sedona stayed in her spot taking it all in while enjoying the time with her mother.
For me, an adventure without my camera would leave an empty feeling, like a part of me was missing. I imagine, a kayak journey without Sedona would leave Tara feeling that same way.
