Hey, Autumn is Next WEEK!!

But it's still hot here. Not as hot. But still. You know.

Last weekend we went out on the pontoon boat (Steve won't let me name it the HMS Shagatsea) not to be confused with the Bayliner which we call the SS Minnow.

It was just Steve, Shay, and I, and the lake was perfect. Not too many people out there. We headed up river, thru what is known as the Topock Gorge and Devil's Elbow. Lots of great pictures....

The first one is Steve very gracefully hopping up on the boat to relocate it on the beach we visited:


Shay quickly made himself at home.


We had a body building competition:


We floated under the train bridge a little


I may have figured out why people have been telling me that Shay reminds them of Owen Wilson:


Sometimes we went fast:


I like this picture, it shows how calm the water was where we were sitting:


After about 5 hours on the water, we headed home for dinner. Just in time to avoid too much of a sunburn. In two weeks, the weather will be changing and we'll be able to frolic all day without getting exhausted from the heat. Can't wait.
