Echo Lake…due east of home, along a dirt and gravel road over the foothills. On a weekday morning, there is minimal activity on the water – a few fisherman, a few waterskiers.
We access this piece of lakeshore from a public fishing access site. There is a nice trail around an inlet that provides plenty in the way of things to explore for Karl and beautiful vistas for me. We have a long amble as it is cool now, but getting warm on its way to hot.
Echo Lake in the morning.
Everything that is Montana in the Spring is in this photo: green grass and trees, blue sky, white clouds…dark clouds, snow rapidly retreating from the mountain tops.
The air is as clear and clean as it looks. A breeze comes up off and on and the dark clouds skirt the mountain tops but at noon, when Karl and I walked it felt like the late Spring day that it was.
A day a little warm in the sun for a black dog who isn’t quite rid of his winter undercoat. He’s waiting for me in a spot of shade.
Meanwhile, back at the house…
Mr. Bob gets a somewhat slower start to his Monday.
One fine day all around :)!
