Water bugs

The Lake and Pool are Open! Mom and Dad are officially moved into their retirement palace. :) The lakehouse is stunning and they are having a great time setting it up "just so". We are thrilled to take regular advantage of the pool and the lake with lots of kayak time. In addition, the boat is in on the St. Croix river this year (rather than the lake which is a little low thanks to some drought conditions here in Minnesota). We have had a couple of lovely jaunts down the St. Croix which is a federally protected natural river and is absolutely gorgeous.


Gramps and Kate captaining the Kanpai on the St. Croix.


I took Liam for a spin. He loved it, and insisted on helping me paddle (not so easy with the 3 year old helping! :)


Kate was big enough to ride in the double kayak with Uncle Pak!


Maggie going solo.
