Description
The skies were crystal clear on the morning of Wednesday September 13th, 2000. There was absolutely no wind due to the radiational inversion and the strong subsidence with the ridge of high pressure. I headed out with my paints looking for a suitable subject. I climbed a ridge overlooking the "cornerstone" of McCrae Lake. If any hunk of rock identifies McCrae, this is it. It stands at the eastern entrance to the main portion of the lake and is distinctive in shape. The water was like a mirror until around 11 am when the first hint of cumulus appeared and brought the upper winds down to the surface.
After completing the painting I went had had a snooze on the very top of the rock. It was a beautiful September day with a nice breeze.
