There were only a few boats on the bay. It was coolish and the rain sprinkled on and off.  Some people were out working on boats, yards, and docks.  A few people fishing.

A very inviting beach called No Como Beach.  There is a satellite on the beach, but only people who live in Deephaven can use it. :)


We cruised around looking at mansions and sailboats.  Lots of wooden boats.  Went under a bridge and into a small marshy area.  Only a boat or two. Nice paddle.  Todd wants to get ready for fishing from his kayak.
