Labor Day Weekend, 2018

Wow BB. Just wow. You get in that stuff? Eewww

Now I see why your growth is stunted.

Yep I lost another inch just this week. Heck it's 65 degrees already for you.
This is the first year it's ever been like this here.

Just so you don’t forget what fresh water should look like
Now Chautauqua lake? it’s a little green..

We had some extended family down this weekend that included my cousin and his girlfriend who was a lake rookie! It was so much fun having her try everything for the first time! She was Sooo very close to getting up on skis and loved getting thrown off the tube and cliff jumping! The excitement on her face reminds me why the lake is awesome!

Our fun didn't stop there, my SIL's sister has a new Malibu so we jumped over there and took some turns surfing! My cousin is freakishly good at everything athletic and was up and surfing on his second pull!

Oh and it was also fun to get a side by side comparison of the 222 and A25... Grandpa wasn't available for this picture!

I love your green water! Looks like you had a good weekend on the water.
We still want the pictures of Katie surfing. I know you have them somewhere in that vault

Here are some pictures I took from yesterday. Met yo with white lightning again and we ended up combining our stack mats for an extremely long stack mat!

Looks like fun y'all! After the incredible weekend we had I'm sitting in Dallas in a hotel room while my wife is still at the lake. But I get to go back on Thursday so it's all good.

I thought I would share this here too. I posted this in my welcome thread.

It was a great outing. This was my daughter's second trip out on the boat. I was heading back before she said she was done. i didnt want to wear it, but then she knew where I was headed and didnt want to go it...So...At her request...as in the movie Armageddon "I am going to twist you and flip you until you scream then do it again". I was basically the only boat on the water. I love this video and wanted to share in my kiddo's happiness. Of course I was grinning ear to ear.

I hope this link works. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rEtAi5 ... kWAuy/view

That’s a great vid of your daughter in that 262 bow. It’s just so awesome for kids up there with all that freeboard. Love it.

....and great pics Nauti & TG98! (double mats! Very impressive!)

Awesome video Jason! She is loving every minute of it!

As a fellow 262 owner I can tell you it’s the first boat I’ve had where everyone fights over the bow seats. My old boats it was last one in sat up front.

Made it out today. Lake is down 25 feet from a few weeks back and is dropping 2' per day. All courtesy docks on the lake will be dry by next week and as such, launching with kids and a wife with a bum knee will be unlikely. Maybe we will take a road trip to McCall instead.

Weather started chili at 50 degrees, but was in the 70s by 10:30 or so. Much faster than the weather app said it would get there.

Got onto the lake and drove around for a while, burning the 10 gallons of gas I out in on the way to the lake.

Parked, ate lunch and got a little wet. Water temps at 67° so it was down a couple degrees from 2 weeks back.

Left about 4:30 to get home at a decent hour.

I did a little water skiing for old time sakes while my son drove. Such a workout!
