Friday, July 20 we arrived to the
cabin around noon. It took us most of the afternoon to get unpacked and
set up the camper. Bridget made us burgers and some fish that Paul and
Alan had caught.
Saturday, July 21 the
cement truck pulled in right on time at 8am and we all went out to pour part of
the floor in the shop. Alan had all of the pipe laid so we could put in
the electrical and plumbing later next week. In the afternoon, Hannah,
Paul, Scott, and I took to the lake. Paul did a reenactment of last
year's Water Sumo Boy and then we all swam part of the way to the island.
When we got back Nana had come down to the lake so Hannah and I went back out
swimming with her. Hannah had on fins and was flying through the
water. She could outrun any muskie! We headed in to pack for dinner
at Connaught Point. Alan, Scott, and Paul took off fishing around 5pm and
the rest of us packed the pontoon boat for a hot dog roast and took off, Hannah
at the wheel. When we got there Dad, Hannah, and I jumped out and scouted
a place to get to the rock. I pulled the pontoon along the beach and into
some weeds then dad decided to go back to the other side so everyone else got
back in and moved the boat while I took the kayak around the peninsula.
Ron and Dee arrived about then so after they got the boats settled I pulled up
the kayak. I ended up with two leeches probably from walking thru the
weeds. We had a beautiful night and Paul and Alan even caught a couple of
walleyes. There was a baby deer swimming across from Boat Island to Canoe
Island. I was sure it was a baby moose so Paul and I jumped in the kayak
and chased it. He got the pictures on his iPhone but I haven't seen them
yet. When we got back after we we took baths and Paul wanted to play
Shanghai Rummy. We played to rounds pretty much all slap happy.
Paul said we couldn't quit until he won and it was eleven o'clock so I fed him
players for two rounds so he would win and we could all go to bed.
