My dad and stepmom have a trailer there. My uncle and aunt have one too. On Sunday we went down to visit with them. I actually started by going for a run around the lake- 4 miles! I did it in 50 minutes, with a lot of walking. Let me tell you- running on the road in the midday sun is way different than inside, in air conditioning on a treadmill! But the dog came with me, and she loved it. In fact, she's been sidling up to me every day clearly asking for more.
By the time I got back from my run, Joel, my step-mom and my aunt and uncle had already finished one go out on the boat. Joel had his first-in-five-years go at wakeboarding. After hanging out at my uncles and aunt's trailer and having lunch and a few drinks, we went out on the boat again, and I got to snap a few pics and videos of Joel doing his thang.
Here we are on the deck of my uncle's trailer. In the background you see a swamp. Yeah, it's actually really nice though. :)
Joel's got his life-vest on (it's the law in Michigan!) and is getting ready to go!
In the water ready for one of a few tries at getting up...
Up!
Showing off his skills...
He got a couple really good runs in
It almost looks easy no? Almost...
It was nearly sunset...my camera would have gotten some great shots, but as it was, even Joel's point and shoot got some good ones.
And finally, here is a video of Joel wakeboarding. He really did a great job. And never mind that he can barely move today. :)

Run around garezers as much as you can! I prefer counterclockwise, but that is just me. So much different and harder than treadmill, but good. Next summer I will be there running every day... do they make triple baby joggers??
