Canoeing was wicked fun!

So this morning I got up early, came and had breakfast. Then went home to get ready to go canoeing. I also had to call my Dad because it was his birthday and then I called Mike because it was his birthday as well. I didn't get to talk to either of them though. But I am going to try again tomorrow.

At like 9:50, Laura calls me and tells me that she just spoke with Joan and she was not coming canoeing with us. Both Laura and I were like, great we didn't have to uninvite Pat! But I was not going to call Pat 10 minutes before we were leaving and tell her that she could come with us again. I had already made a fool of myself having to invite her I didn't want to feel like a bigger jerk.

So Laura and I set out for our adventure. We got to Joan's house and learned how to attach the canoe to the car and we were off. We got to the dock and put the canoe in the water and safely made it into the boat. Our goal was not to tip the canoe because we both had our camera's in it. We set off in the direction on our right because our intention was to stay near the shore because the middle of the lake is like 500 feet deep. On the shore of the lake, there is a little town and I mean little but they do have a school. We docked and headed inward just to see. We ended up walking all around the school and on some of the road.

When we got back to the canoe, we decided to keep going to see what was past that. We went about half way around the shore and got to a point where the lake continues on but we just kinda floated along. Ok so we floated into the middle of the lake or atleast into the middle of that part of the lake. We just kinda chit-chatted for an hour or so. We kept paddling and took pictures of each other. It was wicked fun!

When we went to go put the canoe back on the boat we looked like pro's it was great. At Joan's we stayed for a minute to see how she was feeling. Laura and I had to get back so that I could make it to church at 5pm. After church there was a potluck. I made cookies for it. It was fun. I got to meet some new people. Then I brought Becky home from church (she is one of the environmental health interns). I dropped Laura's car off at her house and we took Goliath for a walk. So I got tons of exercise Today. I was going to go do taeboo but umm its like 9:30 and I am exhausted, I am going home and watching some TV and writing some postcards!
