The girls and I sat the 4-mile paddle out today and let Wes and Kris take off.  We did get to play for a bit at the launching site.  It turns out that Smudge is not overly thrilled about being a passenger in anything but a vehicle.  :)  Wesley said that kayaking is much less stressful then golfing with Dad.   
 
Isabel had a little lesson on floating with the current today.  Kris discovered a new take out on the river that makes the trip possible with younger paddlers.  Kristianna practiced some life guarding and storytelling skills regarding the aforementioned current.  I was reminded again how essential play is to any age group.
These are some good lessons for a Labor Day weekend!

This looks like a lot of fun! Funny that Kris is more fun at this than golfing! :) And Smudge had a wonderful time once he was out and in the water!
It was fun. I have always loved this spot (and so has Smudge!). It is so beautiful and peaceful.
