(the sixth largest lake in the US--nothing's bigger except the Great Lakes)

bathing suits and catching those Green Mountain rays
Tim relaxing on the
loaner
boat Steve got from the manufacturer...
unfortunately its
motor died
the first time we took it out,
so we could only use
it for
trawling, which is moving at half a horsepower
(the regular motor
gives you
90 horsepower).
We would just take it
out
to the middle of the lake and use it as a diving platform.
Deb gets back on the
boat
after a swim.
One morning the
neighbor's
boat got loose from its mooring and started drifting away in
a strong breeze.
Steve happened to see
it in
time, and paddled out in the kayak to rescue it.
He attached it to the
kayak
with a rope and tugged it back to the dock.
Made it! Bert and
Steve secure
the boat to the dock.
Tim laughs and Bert
gives
a thumbs-up while Steve tells the owner what happened.
When Valley friends
Brian
and MB came up with their (functioning) boat,
we were able to go
tubing
at last. This is Dylan's first time.
Tim was eager to tube
again
after experiencing the thrill in 2001.
Deb and Bert give it
a go.
Tubing is way easier than water skiing.
You don't have to
stand up,
just hold on!
Night fishin' tips
for Dylan
and Liese from Uncle Stephen
Dylan hoping to end
the day
with a catch.
