Down by the Lake

Last night my guy asked me if I wanted to take a walk down by the lake. I refused at first, but then I changed my mind. I'm not getting enough exercise, and I knew we could both use a break outdoors.

So we went, and I had the most amazing time, starting with meeting these two young men and their pets on our way to the lakefront park.

I have never seen anyone walking a leashed lizard, but he was a friendly guy. The littler one was so cute, too. :)

Then the sun began to set, and lit up the horizon in tangerine and gold fire.

I was able to get a shot of a seaplane coming in for a landing and a boat against the sunset, too.

Most of the time we were watching we had this lovely creature right beside us, too, and we all enjoyed the moment. Best afternoon I've had in a long time.
