We took two mountain bikes out in the morning, picnic lunch in hand, and followed the trails - Yellow trail - red trail, we tried' em all - riding through the purple violets and the wild strawberries, pushing and pulling the bikes up steep hills. We paddled a canoe around the lake and had a marvellous wild conversation with a loon. Dinner at the Inn - What a wonderful day!"
