Webb Lake

Yesterday was a beautiful day here in Wilton, so we decided to take Savannah for her first canoe ride. We took the short scenic drive to Mount Blue State Park and rented a canoe. We made it a surprise for Savannah, and when we got there, she kept saying, "I'm so excited!!!!"

Richard did most of the rowing, but both Savannah and I gave it a try. Savannah loved bouncing on the big waves that the jet skis and bigger boats created as they zoomed by! It took me a while to get used to how much the canoe rocked, but once Richard showed me how stable it was I felt better. It had been a while since I had been in a canoe!


After we paddled around for a while, we pulled up next to a huge rock in the middle of the lake. Savannah and Richard got out and stretched their legs while I stayed in the canoe so it wouldn't drift away.


Savannah stood on the top of the rock, stretched her arms out, and felt like the Queen of the world! She definitely wants to do it again. They also have kayak and paddle boat rentals, so we plan to go again soon!!
