Proud Captain
John was beaming when he was given the responsibility of "Captain of the Ship". He was now in charge of both running the engine and setting our course. We trawled across the lake. As we turned around at the end of our bay on the lake a pair of jet skis came flying bye. They had come from "Sun Set Hotel" and were heading to the resort across the lake. The shocking thing was that they purposely ran over a flock of loons! We had been watching a group of about 20 birds bobbing and fishing at the opening of our bay to the big central expanse of the rest of the lake. Not only did these kids think is was funny zooming over the flock, they also thought that it was funning zooming right next to our boat. Please have some etiquette and some concern for the wildlife. Giving John the helm at ten was a great experience for him. Next summer maybe he will move up to sailing on his own.
