Summer is almost gone

Boating season and Summer are almost gone. I am SO sad. While Fall and Spring are beautiful...my favorite is Summer. Winter well, I like it for a bit, but not much. I think the sicknesses that go with Winter, just ruin it for me. So, with Fall fast approaching, we only have a few more trips on the boat possible. We took advantage of one of those days last weekend. We just went to the closest place, Bottle Hollow. The water was so smooth, it was great. No wind. Only 3 other boats. Nice and sunny. It was perfect. Only bad part was that Tony is recovering from a sore back, and he couldn't do any of the water sports. We all jumped in and swam for a while. We had been working hard, building are deck..and the water felt so good. Gracie & Tony dove right in.

While TJ eased himself in. He did eventually jump...and then he wouldn't stop jumping. lol

I jumped in as well, and after I got over the initial shock, it was so nice. We turned on the tunes and swam and floated around. At one point, Gracie was up on the seats dancing. Okay, I was dancing too..but I was on the floor of the boat. Gracie needed a stage. ;)

I rode the tube with both kids, one at a time. I think I was on that tube for about an hour. I could feel it in my muscles the next day! WOO! Here are a couple pictures of TJ and me and on the tube. Didn't get any of Gracie and me.


We hope to get out another time or two, before we have to winterize and wrap the boat. So, so sad! :(
