An easy paddling escape to a pair of roadside ponds

I paddled Grass Pond and its neighbor, Fishhole Pond, on a sunny day in late May. On neither pond did I encounter people. I did see a red-winged blackbird nesting in a dead tree, a spotted sandpiper bobbing its tail on a rock islet, a deer drinking from the wooded shore and a school of fish wriggling upstream.
