With full awareness that I sound like a terrible broken record, San Diego is lacking in the summer department thus far this year. At least beach-wise. And, as usual, I am longing for more water and swimming in my life. Specifically, I'd love to spend a long weekend planted with my family at a lake. If you know of one worth swimming in, and drinking margaritas by, oh, say within a 5 hour radius of San Diego, do tell. Lake photos from my "lake" board.
We're headed to Kern River this weekend for a week! I am so excited. It's absolutely beautiful and relaxing there. :)
ReplyDeletethat is AWESOME! that is actually so far my favorite water place in so cal: http://adesertfete.blogspot.com/2010/07/this-camping-trip-was-almost-as-epic-as.html
DeleteI know you're prob maxed out on vacay but srlsy... come visit us in Bend. rowboats, lakeside houses, rope swings. plus, a little buddy for H to hang with.
ReplyDeleteLe sigh—California is so annoying! So many lakes have no-swimming rules! Of course, I still do. I'm particularly fond of camping in Idyllwild, so Lake Hemet's decent for sneak swimming. But if you find a lake in which you are totally allowed to swim freely, please do tell! So annoying! I'm totally with you on the desperation to have a northern summer. So Cals summers just never quite compare.
ReplyDeletemy goodness those photos are awesome

Five hour flight/drive from San Diego? McCall, Idaho. Gorgeous, the lake is incredible and perfect for summer swimming.
