Dusty and I decided to go to Elk lakes. It's a provincial park in the middle of
NOWHERE.
We had heard that it was pretty and that there was some great fishing.
We decided to take a gander.
We left our house at 12pm, hoping to stop somewhere and have a picnic lunch. About 130 we got to mile marker 120 and to the beautiful
Blue Lake
(that's actually it's name... I didn't make it up.
Although if I was going to make up a name for it I would of called it Blue lake.
It is crazy blue.
The pictures don't do it justice.)
The water is so shallow that it is actually warm. If you've ever swam in a mountain lake.... then you know that's AMAZING. The girls had so much fun throwing sticks to Ruby (my parents dog.. we were dog-sitting) and rocks and splashing.
Ellie got a little rambunctious and went in a little farther than her jeans would allow.
Dusty decided that it was fire time.
It was a great place to picnic. There are two campsites, only one with a picnic table and there's also an outhouse. We were the only people there. It was an awesome spot. A friend told us about this spot so I'm so glad we went out there.
Belle also went for a dip but she preferred the picnic.

Ruby was glad too. She kept trying to sneak off for a swim....
Naughty dog.
