calm and placid ripples fill the great land and earth

this is at the clear lake state park in lake county, ca. clear lake is so beautiful! (but not so clear..) we stayed there for a couple of hours as i read (well tried to read) Snowflower and the Secret Fan by Lisa See. It isn't school assigned but it is my book talk book for 4th quarter, so i still have to present it. i also attempted at skipping rocks.. but it didn't go to well. haha, anyone want to teach me? the weather was great though, and i would like to go back in the summer to do all the summery things, like boating, and horse-back riding, and go in a hot air balloon, and all that cool stuff. me and teri also made leaf nature crowns out the trees nearby. fun day well spent.
