A few weeks ago we headed up to West Okoboji to spend the weekend with my aunt and uncle. We had a wonderful time on the boat, in the water, and socially distanced at the Barefoot Bar. It was a wonderful getaway. We’ve been battling various illnesses since we returned, but hope to be fully recovered soon.
Have you been able to get out on a boat this summer?

That looks like a wonderful trip! Everyone has such big smiles, and no wonder 🙂 I haven’t been able to get out on a boat this year. Hopefully next summer!

Kayaks are boats – at least once a week on the water. I just don’t get powerboats, unless used as transportation to get somewhere; I’ve never seen the attraction except for things like ferries. They scare the great blue herons and loons… To each their own –

I do want to get a kayak. I think the kids would love being able to explore more lakes from the water.

You might enjoy it, too – but you’d need a fleet!

Looks like such a happy holiday. I learnt to waterski when living in Michigan, with my tiny feet they taught me using children’s water skis…perhaps once the children are a bit bigger they can give it a try.

Looks like a wonderful time! I had my one beach day, where I sit knitting and/or reading for 4 hours, then get a lobster roll for lunch and call it a day. That’s the closest I’ve come to a boat this year 🤣

We’ve been out on our boat several times this summer as I don’t really want to mix with people at the club pool 😷 The puppies were skittish at first but like kids, they got used to it and look so cute in their red life vests. There’s even an ice cream truck boat that sells “Frosty Paws” ice cream for dogs. But the smiles on your children are lovely. They look so happy to have a bit of boating fun.
