Day 4 (6/13/09)
Again we went down to the lake. Although the lake is handy, being only two miles from our house, it offers limited scenic value. Unless you are into the lifestyles of the rich and famous there is not a great deal to look at. We did have a great time however because the water was a little rougher and gave us a chance to practice at a new level. We learned one valuable lesson and fortunately we learned it the way we did. When we took off we went against the wind, probably by dumb luck. We paddled for an hour south before deciding to head back. It took less than half the time to get back to where we had started. We were very glad we hadn’t gone the other direction and had to double our time getting back. The weather was beautiful and we had a great time.
