This is honestly one of the most beautiful, peaceful places I can think of. I love it up there, so you can imagine my shock when I learned that my in-laws had never been to the lake. I knew this was an unfortunate situation, that needed to be remmidied.
So we planned a picnic for today; and of course today desided to be the wettest May 18 on record.
Insead of going to the lake, we picnicked at our kitchen table. After the fabulous food, Tom decided that dispite the downpour, we should still drive out to Porkipine, just so his parents could see how pretty of a place it is. After all, we could drive around, enjoy the scenery, and stay dry in the car.
Well, an amazing thing happened as we made our trek to the lake, the rain stopped, and the clouds cleared right as we got o Paradice. By the time we were in the canyon the ground was drying and the day was warm. You would have never guessed that we nearly needed an ark to get there.
It was beautiful. The water clear and smooth, the birds chirping away, the trees budding. Could not have asked for more perfect weather. After about an hour and a half of playing, and exploring, we desided we should pack up and head home. You will never guess what happened on the drive back; rigt as we got to Paradice, the clouds gathered, and terenchale rains started to pour. Talk about perfect timing for our little expedition. What a beautiful day it turned out to be.
