Setting Sail

 

The SS Something in all it's ten feet of inflated glory.  It has a trolling motor, the oars are just for fun.

The husband and oldest set sail.

Since only three of us fit on there at a time, someone has to get left behind on the maiden voyage.  Alas, the teenagers stayed on land (they're that little pinkish blob in the middle of the photo.)   and we went back for them later.  It was so peaceful!

It took about three months to actually get all the parts to actually use the boat, and three hours to pack all the boat crap to actually go to the lake. I might have been a little cranky when we finally got there... 

And of course when we got home, the kids immediately complained we never do anything fun.  Typical.

I think I'm going to name the boat the Crab-a-nater :)
