If you look carefully, the blue lifejacket is just over Jeremy who went first into the water....it looks more dangerous than it actually was as they were not going too fast....Lots of screaming going on I tell you.
The girls who are now 17 plus just thought that diving from the raft was the most fun. It's just
what happens when raised for the past ten years
coming to the cottage and making the best of the
weather, no matter what.
The lake was very rough and so the tubing was a wild ride for those that ventured out on the lake. We did have calm weather on Saturday morning so we had the ski lessons done and both the new skiers got up on the first try. It happens when kids are used to coaches giving directions to the sprint canoers...Ryan, who was a friend of our grandson, got up on the first try and looked like a pro, while Brianne, Courtney's friend and her kayak partner was like an old pro. There was huge cheering as they both skied so well.
But that was it.. the wind was too wild for trying
doubles as we had hoped for Sunday morning.
The last photo is of the boys being brave as
boys will be. They just were cheering the wild
ride they had had!
Bob and Mary who had been here for the week left at noon hour with Alex because she lives just
around the corner from them. Kelly took the rest of them home around 5 pm. They ate an early dinner here and were looking forward to an even later bbq at home....Yeah you can't imagine the food we went through over 3 days....the fridge is empty!
My sweetie and I went to bed at 8:30 pm and didn't get up till 8:30 this morning....It was an exhausting weekend I tell you. But memories were made for all the kids.
I had fun!

Looks great, Nanci!
What an awesome place to have... I need to find out what's involved in getting some land by the lake - probably in Nova Scotia instead. How much the taxes are etc etc. I won't something like this in a few years.
What a fun time they are having. Oh to be young :-)
This looks like my kinda fun!! What fantastic pictures too!!
Looks like alot of fun to me.....
that is such a good action photo! it looks like fun was had by all. What memories you all have of the cottage every summer. Now a question from a southern (well for the last 30 years that is) isn't the water cold!!!

Well Karen, yes water can be cold! We are Canadian! I let the kids enter the water at 65 degrees....they don't care at all, but this summer it's about 70 degrees today.
