Fairhaven Bay is just barely visible at the end of Pleasant Meadow.

We arrived at the Bay at last!

Fair Haven Bay!

What peaceful serenity!

We spent about a half hour at the old boathouse on the Bay.

Some watched the water, others observed the forest.

Walter Brain and Sean Hale identified a tree by the shore.

Everyone enjoyed the stellar weather.

Esperanza may have found a frog!

Are you looking at me?

Noah certainly enjoyed the walk!

What a view!
