Watercolor Wednesday: Boat time

Well, since I can’t be in Minnesota just now as planned because of the pandemic, I will post one of my dad’s paintings from the land of 10,000 lakes. This is Sucker Creek going into Sucker Lake. A quick online search tells me that there are more than one Sucker Lake in Minnesota; this one is I’m guessing in Vadnais Heights (with suckers being a type of fish).

None of us can take a canoe out onto that lake, for it’s regulated by the St. Paul Water Utility. But we can imagine. If you were to take a boat of some kind out onto the water, what would you do? Fish? Swim? Lounge in the sun? Take a few moments to imagine how you best would enjoy some lake time.
