LOOK AT US GO

OH, so sorry; You CAN"T look at us go...we don't have any pictures of our crazy exploits...
I am sorry for the inconvience of no visual aids: we don't have a digital camera and therefore could not capture the serenity, the joy, the craziness of our day...but we hope you 'get the picture'
Today we shared a day out on the lake with our good friends the Wall Family. This beautiful family from Germany has become near and dear to our hearts over the years and they are preparing to return to their homeland of Germany. So today at their suggestion we rented a pontoon boat for the lake.
I literally felt like the Beverly Hillbillies of Lake Jacomo! We had a blow up air mattress we used as a floatation device as well as a small blow up boat. We tied a string on to the back of the boat and attempted to hold on. After almost severing Philip's hand in two the men (Viktor and Philip) looked for other options, in which they accousted one of Viktors fishing poles. They proceeded to take it apart and we used half of the pole as a handle to hold on to. At one time there were 8 of us being pulled by a very hard working motor. We had ahold of each others ankles, edges of the mattress and a few strong and able bodies held on to the pole. After laughing hysterically as we are meandering through the waves, the pole broke in two, only to cause us to laugh harder!
Then (not to be upped by Morgan's experience of para sailing in Thailand) we found a 25 foot cliff that jutted out into the water. After testing the depth of the water at the probably point of impact...we decided to GO FOR IT! Meghan led the charge on this one and became hooked. What a RUSH...Most of us plummeted off this cliff at least once some going as many as 4 times.

We enjoyed 8 luxurious hours in the sun, swimming, laughing (yes eating too) jumping, mattress riding; just sharing the beauty of the day with beautiful people. We all agreed, God was in our midst ENJOYING us as we enjoyed one another. He made this day for us...hope you enjoyed it too.
