The men went down to a borrowed lake house on Lake Keowee Friday night and had a profitable time of meeting and planning. They spent a few more hours meeting together on Saturday morning and early afternoon, and then the FUN began :-) (Well, I'm sure their meetings could be defined as fun also...just not the same kind!) The families trickled in throughout the afternoon and there was opportunity for tubing on the lake. I hadn't taken my swimming gear because I assumed the water would be too cold. I was a little disappointed about that when I realized how much fun it would be to tube and that the water really wasn't bad. Well, let's just say that Michael accidentally gave me the opportunity to get wet in spite of my lack of proper gear! Here's the story: We stopped at a little waterfall, and Harry pulled the boat up close enough for us to wade to shore and explore. (Michael carried me through the not-so-shallow part until it was shallow enough for me to wade with my jeans rolled up.) On the way back to the boat, Michael assured me that he could carry me through the section of water we were in--different route than the way we came--and that it wasn't deep enough to necessitate swimming. He was WRONG :-) He went down and I went down right after--yes, fully clothed and completely soaked! It was actually quite humorous and gave me the opportunity to go tubing after all since I was already drenched. Thanks, Sweetie! It was tons of fun!
