Have you ever ended a day indecisive if all of your guardian Angels went on vacation or maybe you were actually sent extra. We had one of those days. Even now blogging about it a couple of months later it brings back anxiety I just wish I could forget.
The day started out great with us (mostly Bart) working on re staining the deck. We had to stick around for a Patriotic Camp teen leader training for Emily so Bart made the best of the morning. As staining decks go we underestimated the time and got a late start to meet Raquel at Willard Bay. Raquel ended up having a flat on their boat trailer and got off to a late start as well and we ended up meeting them at the reservoir around 1pm. We enjoyed some time paddling around in the kayaks and then set out on the boat to enjoy the sun.
Not to focus too much on the negative but after a while on the lake we experienced a series of misfortunate events. Not quite as bad as the Netflix show my kids liked to binge watch for a while but bad enough to make for a no good horrible day on the lake. Let's just say it involved almost hitting into another boat followed up by Jane and Joe getting an ear full of profanities, Bart tearing a muscle in his thigh and Jane getting hit in the face by the rope. To make matters worse the Kayaks also blew off our roof on the way home. But just as Bart's favorite children's book he likes to read to Spencer, "It could have been worse" we made it safely home although not a moment too soon with gratitude in my heart for our safe return.
