We went to Silver Lake last week. The second we pulled into the parking lot it started to sprinkle. We're the brave type so we got out of the vehicle and started walking toward the lake. A couple walking in front of us stopped, looked to the mountains, and the guy said, "I hear rain coming down that hill." I listened too. It sounded like the roar of something big and terrifying; something you'd hear in a horror movie. We stopped being the brave type and ran for the SUV. We had only taken a few steps when the rain was upon us. Of course I used the kids jackets to cover the camera.... but really, there wasn't time to put their coats on anyway:) We were soaked by the time we made it to the SUV. (Do I need to capitalize SUV?:)

We sat in the SUV enjoying our picnic.

Like most summer storms it passed in about 20 minutes The clouds drifted away and we saw the most amazing blue sky. We became brave again and started back toward the lake.

Kiyah was running and dancing around. It was cool up there at
8730 feet so running was doable without breaking a sweat.

There were a lot of people fishing. This guy looked the coolest.

This little squirrel was one brave little person!
This was shot at about 1 ft away. I used the 60mm lens.

A photograph of the lake. It sure is pretty!
Have you been there?

No lake visit is complete without a pretty flower.

It was a great day. We loved it!
