Ben and Miles and Gail enjoying each other on the couch...
Later on, we dropped Gail off to get ready for Graduation at Paul Smiths, and Ben and Miles and I took a spin down Keese Mills Road to a great little hike out to some beautiful ponds...
On the way, we noticed this submerged boat, and lots of turtles sunning themselves on the millions of downed trees trying to block the narrows leading to the pond...
Miles went swimming a lot, and likes to run back and forth, keeping an eye on both what's in front of us, and what's behind us...on narrow paths on steep terrain, like this trail has, that means getting wet or dodging him like a toreador, as Ben is doing in this picture...
Once we got out to the big pond, he did some serious swimming and fetching...
There's a lean-to at the water's edge, and both Ben and Miles liked climbing it using the low roofline at the back to get up on top...
We saw gazillions of trilliums along our walk, mostly the white ones like this pretty one...
Ben swore that he could see PSC from the roof of the lean-to no our way back...he couldn't, but he loved looking around to see what he could see...
He and Miles enjoyed their snacks up on the roof...
Some people paddled by to fish the quiet pond, and Ben spied on them while Miles worried about them from the water's edge...
