Water play day

Caught with his mouth open, actually he was jumping up out of the water when I snapped this shot. The water was really refreshing.
We took the girls out on the boat for the last time today. We went early because it was going to get really hot, 110 today. (Even the pavement in the shade was hot.) Mariah was able to get up on the knee board today, and Samara was able to scoot up and had a good ride. The girls go home Monday, their plane leaves SFO at 6:15 A.M.
We take our lunch and then find a beach to stop, swim and eat. Because it is a man made lake, beachs show up as the water recedes. It was relaxing and refreshing. Keith was able to go today, but Elizabeth had to finish up some school work and get some photos in today. One of her camera (film) lenses got bent somehow, so she switched her digital lense and used that, but still had to get the photos developed, scanned and sent off. Here is grandpa sitting on the back of the boat. He had Keith do all the driving, pulling and taking the boat out of the water ~ while dad did all the supervising. He is trying to give Keith better experience so he will be able to use the boat, without his dad.

Elizabeth isn't left out entirely. We took the boat out on Monday and Keith worked , but Elizabeth was able to go. Ryan even went. Elizabeth and Ryan were jumping off rocks into the water, and even the girls did. That was a fun day also.
