This was a really nice relaxing trip to the lake. We got their Friday afternoon in time to get a site, set up the tents and make dinner. Kevin had an 'Ice Cream Ball' that makes ice cream by adding ingredients and ice and shaking it for 45 minutes. This turned out pretty good considering we didn't have anything long enough to scrape the bottom of the container to mix it. It was good enough that we got more ice and did it again Saturday night.
We pretty much hung out by the lake all day Saturday reading and swimming. The water is very stirred up so the visibility is about 2 inches, but it doesn't seem very gross. There is no algae and it doesn't really smell at all. Emmett and the Ford's dog Gracie were having a blast swimming all day. Maverick didn't want to go in the water. After a few hours, I eventually decided to bring Maverick in since I know he can swim and likes fetching balls. He remembered that he likes swimming and started having fun.
Emmett kept swimming up to me while I was on the raft so I decided to pull him up to see how he liked it. I put him on his back so he wouldn't pop the raft with his nails. He seemed to like it and laid down to relax. Michelle was upset that she didn't have the camera so we had to pose for the picture once she got back with the camera.
Even though Kernville is one of my favorite flights, it just wasn't worth it to fly there for camping for the weekend. Someone would still have to drive the Jeep there with supplies and we'd have to carpool around to accommodate the airplane. Next weekend we're flying to San Jose for our friends Kevin and Shelvey's wedding so I'll get my flying in then.
Oh, and here is a picture that Michelle took of a bug that was hanging around our picnic table that looks like a leaf.
