I walk down to Mississippi Lake to see what the birds are doing.

Looking forward to today's ride to Jackrabbit Lake, I'm up early (9h is early for me). The sun heating up my tent has made it impossible to stay inside.

It didn't cool down that much overnight and it's already a hot morning.

All this plant material in Mississippi Lake is presumably why the lake water tastes green and muddy.
