Not a great sleep but drifted in and out of consciousness til around 9. Had many visitors pop by as at least 5 families from Chaparral live on this street! As I drove the golf cart to check on our boat, I noticed another family that live 10 houses down in our street on Chapman Way! Les and Krystal and their daughter Addison. Les told me to hop in his truck and we toured the entire property and went over to Newgate to visit the Mazureks. We headed back to Madera and packed up everything for our boating day.
We picked up the boat and headed to the marina and took the boat covers off and successfully backed it in to the lake and got it running! Yay! Krista parked the truck and trailer beautifully and we picked her up on the beach and located the Mazurek clan. We pulled out all the inflatable toys and blew the, all up and then chose one three seater and took Nicholas Jacob and Keira around the lake for an hour.
We went south up to the American border area and accidentally boated in US waters for a while before determining exactly where the line was and whoops - we were over it.
We stopped and had lunch and a visit with Derrick/Kevin/Jason/Alyssa as they were surfing with his Malibu. We had a quick visit then continued tubing. Jacob took a break and Nicholas and Kiera wanted some circles so we went around for a while until the tube flipped over and they went flying. Nicholas ended up getting major scratches on his arms and stomach from the tube. Time for a beach break.
We had a few snacks and then went back out. Nicholas tried wake boarding for a while and then Darren wakeboarded and slalom skied extremely successfully. We toured around the eastern shores and then headed back to park for supper. The day had disappeared and it was 8pm. We took our trailer back to storage and left our boat in the water anchored to some concrete.
We repackage and headed over to Newgate Sandy Shores to Mazureks for an amazing supper of burgers and salad before getting an invitation to go surfing behind Robinsons boat. The boys were pumped!
Out we went onto the lake and watched Kevin Jason and Derrick take turns. Nicholas got his chance and after some quick instructions popped out of the water on his first try. With the sun setting quickly in the West, we were out until it was dark at 1030 pm! Crazy!!
We parked the boat and headed up to the campground for a late night propane fire with S'mores and fire pies.
We headed back to our campsite after midnight and had a terrific sleep. What a fantastic day!
