We spent a morning by the river,
hiking, birdwatching,
and keeping an eye out for the wild horses.
It was hot. 112 F.
The tubers yelled over to us
that the water was most refreshing.
The lone girl kayaking,
the water reflecting the sky.
Horses, birds, river folk.
We saw - and heard - them all.

What a lovely post! Everything along the riverside looks so green and healthy. With the 112 temps didn't the water tempt you at all?

112! You are a very brave girl. I does look refreshing with the water and all.
I think I'm going out there tomorrow morning. Looks so cool.
Yes, the water was tempting! Roe, have fun. Take a towel just to wipe the sweat, haha.
Wow! That is so darn hot! It looks like people are sure enjoying the river in this heat! Nice pics!
A beautiful place to spend a hot summer day Brenda.

Love this post, Brenda. I don't envy you the 112 degrees; however, I'm convinced that 98 with 98 percent humidity feels worse!
I so want to be there!!! Is that the Salt River??!!! I'd have a tube full of um...cold drinks!!!! Your pics are fabulous and make me want to get into the water. Instead I'm behind a desk:(
It looks so refreshing.
That looks so refreshing. The heat has been very yucky lately, hasn't it? I am ready for Fall!
Such a place! It's reminds me of the American River.
Yep, Chris, Salt River. Have you 'tubed' it?
Oh Autumn, please sneak in soon.
Any time Brenda... :-)
Yes the muskrats are considered a nuisance by the city because they destroy the lake's banks and a non-nuisance by the passerby who feed them with carrots... :-)
Lovely series of photos! Personally, however, there's no way I could handle being out in 112 degrees. I can more easily deal with 40 below--I can always put on more layers to keep warm.
My niece was out there with a bunch of friends - you might have seen her!

That's magical!
My kind of day and I loved all your photos.
