We went out first thing in the morning and showered up in the lake.\u00c2\u00a0 That has been a daily ritual for the last few weeks.\u00c2\u00a0 It basically consists of driving out into the middle of the lake and diving in after a bottle of shampoo and some soap.\u00c2\u00a0 Its a very refreshing way to start the day.<\/p>\n<p>After that we went for the hair cuts and then it was back out to the lake for the remainder of the day.\u00c2\u00a0 Erin&#8217;s Aunt Tina, and her cousin Brennen came out for a visit.\u00c2\u00a0 We loaded up the boat with skis, and towels.\u00c2\u00a0 Brennen and Erin hopped on the tube, and we motored over to black bay.\u00c2\u00a0 We would whip Erin and Brennen around the lake for a while, and after Erin fell off a couple of times we had Erin join me in the boat and we gave Brennen a run for his money.<\/p>\n<p>We unhooked the tube and changed its pull line out for the skiing rope.\u00c2\u00a0 Brennen was able to get up on two skis on his second try.\u00c2\u00a0 We took him around black bay a couple of times.\u00c2\u00a0 He even ventured outside of the wake, which was really good for his first time.<\/p>\n<p>Erin and I each tried a few times to get up on one ski again.\u00c2\u00a0 We wanted to try without anyone else in the boat to see if it would have enough of a punch to yank us out of the water.\u00c2\u00a0 Neither of us were successful.<\/p>\n<p>After spending another hour tubing and skiing we headed back to the house for some brats on the grill, garlic neu potatoes, sweet corn on the cob, and fruit pizza for dessert.\u00c2\u00a0 I was extremely stuffed by the end of the evening.<\/p>\n<p>Then it was time to get all my stuff packed up, which turned into a scavenger hunt to find my things before they could be packed.\u00c2\u00a0 We&#8217;ll see what I missed in about two weeks.\u00c2\u00a0 Hopefully Erin will have room in her bags to bring up my forgotten items.<\/p>\n<p>Well, I am sitting on the plane now waiting for the rest of the passengers to come aboard.\u00c2\u00a0 I will have to post this one when I get home.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well it seems as though the summer has flown by.\u00c2\u00a0 I can&#8217;t believe that I am on my way back to work already.\u00c2\u00a0 It seems like I didn&#8217;t get much of a break.
