Unlike a hike, the day at the lake -- Upper Narrow Pond in central Maine -- has no summit, nor even an agenda; it was just a group of like-minded men who gathered and Don and Roger's summer place to do, well, what you do on a lake. Arriving Friday night for a cookout, we gathered around the fire, set up tents, spent early Saturday afternoon waiting for a short storm to pass over, and then spent the rest of the day kayaking, swimming, visiting the lake's small island, conversing, and eating. Another cookout that evening with the usual hamburgers and hot dogs and local sweet corn was followed Sunday morning by eggs, bacon, sausage, and blueberry pancakes. Kudos to our genial hosts, and thanks to the weather gods who made the storm pass through quickly on Saturday. An excellent, relaxing weekend.
