At 5:45pm on Wednesday, July 27th, 4 of us launched kayaks onto the calm, cool waters of Lady Bird Lake: Cindy S, Lori T, Stephanie N, and myself. There was a little breeze as we leisurely paddled toward Redbud Isle. We checked out the cool, clear waters of the spring that still has a good water flow into the lake in spite of the drought. 😀 Saw the usual turtles and fish and heron. As we rounded the isle, the wind picked up, and we had to paddle hard to make it back to the dock. It had clouded up some too, and we wouldn’t have minded if we’d gotten rained on. But, alas, we didn’t get wet from rain; only sweat. Gloria W.
