#KAMLOOPSLAKE #ROCKYMOUNTAINEER

1/9/2017

0 Comments

 
As we left Kamloops, our overnight stop, we travelled alongside an awesome lake, which was a staggering 20 miles long! We ate our breakfast as a dry landscape of brown, beige and gold passed us by.  The lake was a glorious mirror reflecting the pale blue sky.
A slow, steady pace through countryside covered with sparse vegetation and hot like a desert. Surreal!


Kamloops Lake
Tawny hills
Hug the lakeside
Curvaceous rocks
Tower over the
Still waters.
Ripples from beneath
Pockmark the surface.
Sparse trees
Dotted around
Add a slice of colour.
 An aquamarine blue
So soft and subtle
Iit was hardly there at all.
Dry cracked branches
Pointed like signposts
Broken logs
Discarded like trash
Bathe by the cool water.
Warm air soothes the scenery
A tranquil atmosphere
Created an ambiance
Of muted colours and light.
