Board (Not Bored)

Quick update on yesterday's post: It turns out that one of cousin Peter's house guests was just taking refuge in the cottage next door. But he also had a new house guest named Melissa who arrived yesterday with her two border collies. She's passing through on her way home to Colorado, and it was fun getting to know her a bit.

Today we tried our hand at paddle boarding for the first time. It's the latest craze. Our challenge was that we were using cousin Peter's old wind surfer board, which is not as stable as an actual paddle board. Jack was more successful than any of us older folk.

Here's Jack. We finally broke out the waterproof camera today--I took this picture from the water!


Here's Gramps:


Here's cousin Jordan's girlfriend Katelyn and his dog Gordy:


And here's me. I'm not sure if posting this picture is a matter of pride or a complete and utter lack of pride, but there you have it.
