I got lots of exercise in Montana today! Not only did I do my usual walk, but I also got in the water and paddled around on my River Rat! It was so fun, but my shoulders are a little sore this evening.
Photo Description:
1) Clark Canyon Reservoir is popular with boaters.

4) There are lots of beaches all along the water's edge.
5) Today I got in the water and paddled around on my River Rat until my shoulders were sore.
