STL DPB ON THE ROAD - DOLCE FAR NIENTE

The caption is a lovely Italian phrase that, poetically translated, means sweet idleness. My Italian is very limited (opera lyrics, basic tourist phrases. Dove sono i gabinetti?) If I understand correctly, far niente more literally means doing nothing. I am a person who does not do nothing well but I admire those who can. These gentlemen in their fishing boat on Budd Lake in Harrison, Michigan, are practiced in the art.

Looks peaceful until you realize they're probably getting eaten alive by mosquitos and deer fly!
