Warm and choppy was Banks Lake, until we found glassy smooth water beyond the cypress, where we watched the moon rise after sunset with Venus and Jupiter, on the Full Snow Moon Paddle, 2025-02-12.

Full Snow Moon, Banks Lake 2025-02-12, Thanks, Janet Martin, and all who paddled

Thanks to Janet Martin for leading, and to all who paddled.

Thanks to Turtleman Chris Adams for capturing the one piece of trash when it escaped my paddle spoon. It was a plastic juice bottle.

These pictures are by John S. Quarterman except where labled SJM for Janet.

The next one is Full Worm Moon Paddle, Banks Lake 2025-03-14.
