Lake Joseph Contrail

The boats are in and now we just need some warmer weather to get out and enjoy the lakes. I feel a heatwave coming. This is a shot on Lake Joseph at sunset complete with contrail.

After Dinner Views

Wouldn’t you agree that the weather was just superb for the Victoria Day long weekend? Got my first boat ride of the season in and I mostly had the lake all to myself. The water has receded to normal levels now although there are many chunks of wood and debris floating about.  Enjoyed an excellent dinner at a friends and while everyone was busy cleaning up I took a few moments to grab this shot up the bay. Anything to get out of doing dishes – LOL.

A Very Full Moon

You can get a clear sense of how high the water levels are on the Moon River from this photo looking out towards the Bala Falls.  Apparently water levels are on the way down on Lake Muskoka followed by Lake Rosseau and Joseph. Check out the handy little graph below with the water levels plotted over the past year.

This is a graph of the water levels on the Moon River from May 01, 2012 to May 01, 2013. Note the huge increase this year compared to last year.
