Camp Taz SMT 69

Well, it's been a very busy week for me. This past week was the 8th annual spring Camp Taz. As many of you know, I have a group of  friends that I met online on the Weight Watchers site that come for a week each spring and fall. This year was one of the smallest groups, but it didn't stop us from having a fabulous time. We were able to kayak every day, so I thought I'd share the pics that were taken on the creek on our kayak runs. I'm going to caption the pictures for you.

This is a nutria, a  beaver like rodent that lives in the creek.

Obviously a turtle on a log. They usually jump off the log before you can get close enough to get a picture of them.

Canada Geese on a sandbar in the shallows

Geese in Flight. I think we made them mad.

Beaver dam

3 of nine deer that were standing in a field (see the white flag of the tail on the right) when we left to go kayaking on a long run.

Great White Egrets

Irises along the creek. I love these flowers.

The other three campers

These osprey are building a nest in a tree right across from our boat ramp and dock. If you look, you can see the stick in the talons of the bird in flight.

This pollen on the water. It looked like it had snowed.

A wisteria along the banks of the creek. It wasn't a deep purple this year like it usually it, but still beautiful

The four campers on our final morning, shortly after returning from our last kayaking trip for this camp with our lattes. Don't we look relaxed and happy? Time to get back to crafting.

 Hope you enjoyed the pictures. I can't begin to tell you how much I enjoyed the week. Spending a week with 3 good friends, laughing and solving the problems of the universe or at least our small portion of it PRICELESS.
