A bunch of us headed down to the dock and played in the water. It was a beautiful day. Sunny with a nice breeze. The water was fabulous. Mom and I were going to kayak but then the other group showed up so Nathan, Scott, Matt, Mom, Jeane, Zane and.I took out our canoes and kayaks out around Paradise Island. It was fabulous! Good company and beautiful scenery. We saw two eagles on the leeward side. One had a fish in its talons. We took a break on the beach and switched up some of the vessels then headed back.
After lunch they put the jet ski in the water and everyone had a great time playing with it. Dad, Scott, and I worked on getting the little trolling motor working. Around 4pm, we headed up to rest and then eat dinner. Brats were on the menu for the night. After dinner Dad, Gene, Matthew, Scott, and Nathan headed out in the fishing boat. We followed in the Pontoon. We took the Pontoon to the beach on Connaught Point. The fishing boat showed up and Matthew had the drone. He flew it over Boat Island and got amazing footage of the lake on top of the island. He was showing me some of the clips and it was amazing!!
On the boat ride back we found a leech on both Jeane and Zane so I pulled them off. When we got back. I took my bath and Azne was playing by the dock. Uncle Scott saw a leech on him so brought him over so I could pull it off. It was about a half inch and black. After I pulled it off, I saw another really small nude colored leech. THen noticed there were about twenty on his foot and leg. I sent someone up for salt and Jeane and I salted him and started pulling them. It was crazy!! We had to have pulled at least twenty. My theory is that the first one I pulled off had babies connected to it. After we were sure they were all off, Jeane took him up for a good shower and checked him over really good. The fishing boat came back and we cleaned up and headed to bed for the night.
