First Day at the Lake

View from the deck...
Today has been a very long, tiring but great day!  I'm exhausted now so I am going to keep this as short as possible so I can get to bed before my eyes just shut on their own.

We made it to the house with no problems.  Unpacking and getting settled in happened very quickly...  especially when compared to how much time and effort that went into packing everything up and loading the cars!

We were greeted with a nice little sign in the parking area when we arrived simply stating, "Welcome Maher Family".  The house was exceptionally clean and included some nice upgrades since we were here last.

Adam was quick to get the boats off the roof of the cars and ready for the water.  Not long after we finished settling in, Adam was heading out on the sailboat.  It was a really nice day for sailing...  nice stiff breeze and, at times, quite gusty.  I hope to get out on the water tomorrow.  In the meantime, Adam seemed to enjoy himself out on the water.  And, most importantly, the new sailboat upgrades seemed to work out fine and were great improvements.

Sheila's afternoon cocktail...
While Adam was re-learning all he forgot about sailing over the winter, Sheila and I had a couple of drinks on the deck.  We watched Adam zip back and forth, up and down the lake.

We had a nice Top Round London Broil steak on the grill for dinner...  sliced thinly...  with some home fries and broccoli.

After dinner, Adam brought his telescope outside to check out the moon.  We had a nice bright moon in a clear sky.  I managed to get a nice shot of the moon which I inserted below.

Now it is time for bed...   we're looking forward to tomorrow...  kayaking early in the morning...  some sailing...  and just relaxing!  Until tomorrow, here are a few more photos from today...

The beauty of a small boat...
being able to carry it down into the water!
