Another very hot day...88 degrees with 86% humidity

Ken got the boom on....now we can put the sails on

I did laundry...Costs $1.50 to wash and over $2.00 to dry...after drying the first load...I was putting the clothes on top of the dryer to fold as there were no counters or space to fold, I lost a sock behind the dryer...dang! so I told Ken next time he went over to the Men's room to look behind the dryer and see if he could get the sock I lost....

So I'm outside sitting on a bench by the water watching the activity when from behind me a fishing line comes over my head with a sock dangling off the hook...Ken is a very creative guy!

We finished what we were doing and walked about 1/4 mile to the Park where the "Wacky Raft Race" was going on -set our chairs up...there was a DJ playing really good music in the middle of the park and around the sides were tents where people were selling their homemade crafts etc....also a little food stand where you could get food and drink...

The winner was the same ones that have won the past 8 years....Jason Jenkins- young man that helped us with our boat, came in 3rd...he actually had 2 entries...I got a picture of him coming in 3rd, but not the one that came in almost last...called chutes and ladders...had a ladder on the raft and a slide...it was the best as far as I could see...they had the most fun...when they got to shore, they all started sliding down the ladder..really cute...of course no picture of that as my stinkin battery went dead....all in all, fun afternoon..

Ken talking to mechanice to ck the battery situation tomorrow morning.

It was so hot I decided to take a swim off the back of the boat in the Catskill Creek.
I got my floaty and just floated around and played for about 1/2 hour..felt good.
Ken took a littl nap..

We dined on board with chili dogs....did a few more chores...trouble signing on the computer so gave up...

all in all a good day...God continues to bless us...what an oportunity for us!
