We had a nice breeze, and it was about 80F outside, with few powerboats on the lake. Apparently they don't like the wind and resulting chop, which suited me fine!

What a fun day!
I'm hoping our puppy will like sailing.

Too many canoes and kayaks

It was! We set out to sail at Merwin Lake, but it was full. Heading further east, Yale Lake was also full. Finally, the largest, and furthest east, Swift Reservoir, had space. It was almost an hour farther than we planned to drive, but it was worth it. (all three lakes are the result of dams on the Lewis River)

I'm not sure if he likes sailing (this was his second time on the boat, he's a year old) but he loves chasing the water that splashes through the trampolines. I think he drank half the lake while we were there. I had to make a pit stop 30 minutes into the drive home so he could get rid of it.
