day 3

Amelia admires her dad's big nice fish...

and a nice collection of fish...

But most notable is the fact that today was powerfully windy. And if you take a paddle boat out on a jaunt around the lake and it is windy, chances are the wind will only be in your favor one way. Angie, Ellie, Anneka and I tried to take a trip around the lake. But it's like in a movie, when the characters are driving and you can see the scenery passing by. Except we were going backwards watching the trees go past, all the while pedaling the boat. Ellie kept peddling all the while. Anneka was a bit more concerned. We finally made it to some strangers dock and tied up the paddle boat. Then we hoofed it through their yard to the road and walked back to the resort. We wore our life jackets the whole time too, just in case. I guess it isn't too unusual for people to hike down the road in life jackets in these parts. So, no more paddle boat trips when there are white caps in the middle of the lake.
