Summer Fun


Every once in a while a guy just has to hang out and let the nephews dictate the play. With temps forecasted to be at or over 100 F, we opted to spend the weekend at the lake.

We engaged in a wide variety of water-related activities. Highlights included kayaking, canoeing (a midnight 3/4 moon paddle in conditions so-calm-it-was-erie), paddle boarding, body surfing and windsurfing.

A short video of the boys body surfing on Lake Oahe can be viewed here. Today these four future watermen played in the shorepound from noon to 5 only taking one break, a forced one, for lunch then back in the water for more.

Oh, what would one give to be young, again?

  1. Hey you two. Just wanted to really really thank you for all your hospitality and kindness to us over the past week. Meeting you two was really a huge highlight about our trip.

    Also Justin just stummbled upon Outdoor life magazine and they rated Pierre on the list of top 10 outdoor towns in the country. It was the June/July edition. Maybe you could write a book about all the outdoor things to do there...

    Also can you please email me your address...
