Lakery part iii

Day three of lakeiness.

There is a band of wild children that are living two doors down from us. Their major summertime activity seems to be yelling. I had sort of hoped that it was a children of the corn/anarchy situation. Unfortunately they appear to have learned it by watching their parents, who are just as loud, and are currently screaming from a boat in the middle of the lake. at 8AM. This is almost an hour later than they started yesterday, and I am not thrilled that I am awake to know this.

Apart from the Screech Family Robinson, who find themselves cropped from my photos, the lake was serene and flat this morning, and the sun was out. It is really a shame we aren't staying one more day, because it looks like perfect swimming weather today. 

Hopefully we'll come back sometime soon and stay again, or at least have a swimming party. We realised its been 12 year since we came here regularly, and 5 since our last visit to the public boat launch for swimmies.



We spent the morning packing up leisurely and filling out the guest book. Portia was able to lay to rest the ongoing feud he had engaged in with the robotic trash can, and they're getting along now.








Our guest book entry will probably not go over that well with our hosts, but it is a fairly accurate representation of our weekend.













We arrived at the Bremerton Ferry Docks just in time to wait an hour for a ferry. This worked out well, because we were able to have some lunch, chill out, and catch pokemon. Apparently Bremerton is lousy with Pokestops, and Sharon was convinced every person on their phone was playing. He doesn't get out much.



We were surrounded by a Squirtle Squad on the way out, but I took care of it, and we were able to depart without a hitch.

Mount Rainier was visible during our ferry ride home, giving Portia a chance to use one of my least favourite local expressions "The mountain is out!"



Now we are all home, and recovering from social fatigue. Why are relaxing lake vacations so damn exhausting!?

The majority of the photos I took this weekend can be found on flickr.
