Redding CA ~ Whiskeytown Lake ~ Boat Parade--We always start to head to Whiskeytown Lake here in Redding California for some fall days, cooler weather and fun doing a little boating and watching the sail boats. I started my Boat Parade last year and I'm happy to say that we have had few fires this year and so the air is cleaner and the views more beautiful than ever. So here's sharing our day with you at Whiskeytown Lake.

The Day starts with GiGi our treasure getting excited about going. She Loves to go to the Lake!

David going for a row while there is little wind. He did manage to get his sail up and go sailing later in the day. I have photos, however he's just a speck out there so you'll have to take my word that he got some sailing in. In fact the wind came up pretty good and he got out in the middle of the lake and the wind died. He had to use the rudder to scull his way back to shore. Grumbles of bigger boat...here we go again!

Kayaking is lots of fun and allows the groups to explore the coast line and picnic.

Beautiful Tri-maran (sp). Skillful sailer who must race her. Beautiful! I enjoyed watching her all day.

Nice little ship making good headway!

The Big Boy just sailed by every boat on the water this day. Great fun watching! You can see the burn area from last summer behind this sail boats!

Redding CA ~ Whiskeytown Lake ~ Boat Parade--Well that's our day at Whiskeytown Lake. It is a must see. Beautiful water and a bit quieter thatn Shasta Lake. Less power boats and we like that.
