it is about an hour and a half from here. My bishop has a house there and invited all the mid-singles in our ward to come down for the day.
I rode down with three guys, John, Harry and Paul and one girl Courtney.
The bishop has an amazing summer home right on the lake. I spent the whole day out on the Lake. The bishop has a really nice boat and I was able to go out on it twice. I went tubing both times... I was terrified but I held on so tight and did not fall off so I did well :)
The bishops daughter Stacey was nice enough to take me out on the wave runner several times during the day, each time we went on really long rides and explored different parts of the lake that she had found, she showed me the state park, the power plant ( which makes the lake warm) , the gas stations, the islands, and the restaraunts that you can drive up and dock your boat and eat there.
I was able to go out so many times on the boat and the wave runner because so many people there just wanted to sit around on the dock or to play Nerts....they asked me at one point if I wanted to play Nerts I said no I did not drive over an hour to play cards or sit on a deck... I thought well that is kind of rude but I did not...I came to have fun!!! but I guess for them sitting there playing cards is fun...some other people played frisbee, I did not play that either...
at about six pm we left to go back home.
It was a great summer day and I am so glad that I went. ... even though I did not ever get in on a game of Nerts...
