Description
After some time in a kayak, my wife needed to stretch her legs. Yong is a strong, brave woman who despite, not being able to swim (sinks like a stone) and will get seasick if kayak has to stay in place for too long a time, really enjoys paddling. Be it lake or river, she has no fear.
Here on Boone Lake in Northeast Tennessee, we can paddle for miles. A dam is being repaired and miles of shoreline, look much like this scene.
We are fortunate, during this time of crisis, quarantine and social distancing that we can relax and enjoy these moments of respite.
Her pose, with hands on hips, surveying the land ahead reflects her personality. Confidence, determination and the will to conquer.
