 Lucy is doing well. Damn it! How do I get in these predicaments? 

Today was a beautiful day. I fought the urge to open my computer today. The lake was still this morning. Sarah brought her paddle boards for us to explore. 

I have heard that paddle boards take a lot of core strength. Sarah and I headed into the lake to give it a whirl. I started out by kneeling. Then graduating to standing. I found a wide base was best for me.

Both Sarah and I were finally standing and paddling around. Yay us! The water is so clear we could see straight down. We saw some kayakers and exchanged pleasantries.

Paul spent the remainder of the morning pulling around the kids on the tube. He loves being able to do this! He spent about an hour driving the kids around on the tube.

We had some snacks and then Craig took us in his boat to one of our favorite spots. We went paddled around

And I kicked around in my tube. This was my fitness for the day.

We had a great time around the campfire. We have a great group of kids with us.
