Beth Jukuri picked a perfect day to get out in her kayak and paddle along the Sturgeon River. Such calm waters provided beautiful reflections on her way, too. Makes me think of the saying about double your pleasure, double your fun. Or in this case, double your peacefulness, because that’s what I see in each of these photos, peace, quietude and tranquility. Beth’s last photo is her Kayak and how she transports it around to where she’s going to put in for a paddle. Her El Camino is the perfect mode of transportation for the job. Not too big to drive around or park, but just the right size to put her kayak in the back and go!

An added bonus from Beth, she recorded a short video so we can all enjoy a bit of the serenity of that day. Make sure your volume is turned UP and if it’s not long enough for you, play it over and over again.

Definitely a Jonn Serrie set of pix!


Watched a documentary on PBS called “ Final run: Great Lakes


Storms of the Century” about all the shipwrecks on the Great Lakes


including the Edmund Fitzgerald…very interesting.

Beth, is your El Camino a 1983? Looks just like the one I had altho a different color. Was a great all-around vehicle except in the snow.
