Today we packed up the family and drove an hour or so out of town to meet up with the rest of the fam for a day of boating on the Leslie & Gary’s boat. Everyone pot lucked food and the cousins had a ton of fun playing around in the roped off swimming area.
All of the kids went out for a little tubing run…
…then most of the adults went out for their turn on the boat. Instead of skiing or tubing we ended up boating up a ways to check out a fire that had been burning all day. Miles and mile of land, all along the shoreline, were torched. Smoke coking us out as we got closer.
We ended up by Gary’s friend’s house/farm. We saw how close the fire was getting to their property so we boated up to see if they needed any help. It was SMOKEY!
Finally we spotted firemen who were shoveling and spraying a burn line to prevent the fire from getting any closer to their house.
After our exciting, adrenaline filled boating trip it was back to the shore for more food and fun.
We decided that Kayleb hadn’t gotten wet enough today so we sent down Dan and Gary down to take care of it :)
