Father's Day

Friday we went to our newly purchased lakefront property. We had hired a fellow to level off the land for us. Then we worked like dogs on the upper portion to get it raked and leveled off to our liking. After a hard days work, here's Mark dreaming of getting out onto the lake.
On Saturday, we returned to the lakefront and finished up the leveling, seeding and planting of the slope with flowers to hold the soil in place. We think that it's really shaping up nicely.
Father's Day. Here's the kids in their boat leaving our lakefront. It's full of lily pads right now, but later in the day we took the little paddle boats and kept running back and forth over the area to stir them up. Dug out a few logs from the edge of the shore too and now we can get the boat up to the edge of our lakefront.
Here we are at one of the little islands. We beat our daughter because we had the gas motor and they had the electic motor. Mark jumped out of the boat and took some photos.
Here comes our daughter and family. They finally made it here to the islands!
The kids had a fun day playing in the water!
