September Long Weekend

On the September long weekend, we cruised up to the Calabogie area of Ontario and spent the weekend with the Taylor and Eberts families. Accomodations were provided courtesy of Al's family who have three cottages at the end of a long road.

During the weekend, we waterskied, swam, did a little fishing off the dock, and hung out by the campfire. The Moms and Dads also went late night swimming, when all the kids were off to bed. The air was cold but the water felt warm...for a few minutes anyways. Then we had to get back to the fire and warm up.

Al's stepdad has a two-seater float plane. He took Clay up for a ride to check out the area. There are a few aerial photos from his trip in the slide show.

Most impressive thing over the weekend: Al's Mom, who is turning 67 soon, waterskied. She had done it a couple time previously in her life but hadn't done it in ages. After a little of Clay's coersion, she put a wet suit on and went for a ski. She did awesome, as she is an extreme wind surfer by nature.

THE SKI MOMS
Here's an awesome photo of Melissa, me, Lorrie and Janet - the ladies and more importantly, Moms, who all skied over the weekend.
