Row, Row, Row Your Boat!

This past Labor Day, we and some friends went to Hurshtown Reservoir and rented some row boats with the kids. We all had a lot of fun, despite the water bottle filled with pee (not ours!) underneath the seat of our boat, and the huge (used, I might add!) bandaid stuck to the back of our friend's boat. After telling you that, I probably don't have to tell you that a small-town toothless hick greeted us when we drove up because I'm sure it's expected.

To make the day even funnier, when our friends asked if there were any bathrooms, the guy said," Ya, there's a red one (meaning an outhouse) over thar, and a yellow one down thar, and the blue one is right har but it needs a cleanin'." He was a nice man though... he apologized for the boats being so dirty, and when we gave him the benefit of the doubt that he'd never heard of a vacuum or broom before, it was quite fun! After boating, we enjoyed a nice picnic lunch and a "hike" around the reservoir.

Above: Go Cam, go! Cam was good enough to let me relax while he rowed. We had a lot of fun with the McCullough family, thanks for coming with us! Hallie loved playing with Mike and Leda's kids: Kailynn and James.
