We made many trips down the "well-beaten path" today as we waited for the HoneyDipper man to come fix our bathroom! Really, it's not so bad in the daytime. Mosquitos can be a problem, but some well-timed swatting is helpful.
Susie, Allison, and I bathed in the lake in the morning (we weren't using the shower, either). Though it was cold and overcast, swimming was nice, and it turned into a morning of water sports. We got out the waverunner, and (after another call to technical support, AKA Mike Hicks) I got it running. I took Allison out, then Susie, then Allison again (who drove, but never went too fast!), then Emily. My kids didn't want to go! The rain began in earnest around lunchtime. We came in to do puzzles, have lunch, and play games. Dinner was delicious - saurkraut, pork, mashed potatoes, and fried apples. I took everyone out to "hunt" for wildlife. We saw 2 deer, but that was it. When we got back, we played a game of penny in the pot. Then, I had to fix the bilge pump (in the rain). Despite some scarey sparking, it finally did drain a considerable amount of water out of the bottom of the boat.

Zachary and Jeremy accidentally wore each other's clothes all day:
The kids made R2-D2s for dessert:
