A bunch of A, B and E dockers descended on Shades this afternoon for drinks. We met up with Ace, Teri, Michelle, Tony, Lori, Joe, Wally, Rob and Jen.
Had a great sail up to Bee creek, and an aborted Sturgeon Moon raft-up. Very sorry to miss iPod wars and all the carrying-on.
This is a shot of a Blue Heron that had parked itself at the end of a ramp on one of the docks in Bee creek. He sat there for at least 30 minutes. I wasn’t sure if it was real until we buzzed by a second time. He was just hanging out in a bit of shade on another 100+ degree day.

WOW – the electrical outlet box in this pic really gives us perspective on the size of this gorgeous creature!
Hi teri, yeah, he was the biggest heron I’ve seen on the lake so far. I was hoping to catch him in flight, but he was not going to budge.
