OUR WATER WORLD, last year

We live as much of our life as possible on the water — this look-back to 2011 is shared with water lovers everywhere and linked with NATURE FOOTSTEPS-WATER and OUR WORLD.  Happy watery New Year!

Water all year

WINTER:  in Florida Winter means car trips to water places and boat trips on the water, with friends and visiting family.

Water all year1

LATE WINTER/EARLY SPRING:  Boat club trips including one across Lake Okechobee to the other side of the state.   We successfully navigated many locks.

Water all year2
SPRING:  We stayed near the water as often as we could when we traveled acros the country East to West. We even saw pelicans — and kayaks — in Colorado.

Water all year3

SUMMER:  Oregon.   Sweet Creek Falls and Fern Ridge Lake.

Water all year5

FALL:  Washington

Water all year6
FALL and EARLY WINTER:  More watery places on our road trip west to East — and back in Florida looking forward to another year on the water!

We appreciate all visitors and commenters! Thank you.
