Another miracle happened around here......Saturday at Lost Creek Lake, Sage asked Scott to take her out in the kayak! Last year, we couldn't even get her to put on a life jacket. They were out for about 30 minutes and she seemed to really like it. Scott recently won a contest at work and he won a real kayak. It is a one man kayak, and apparantly it is for me. I'm not a huge water person but I was willing to give it a a try. So today, we went to Fish Lake and kayaked around for a while. Me in the one person, Scott and Sage in the 2 person. We went for what seemed like a long time and I was feeling somewhat tired. We took a break on a beach and then we started out on our way back. Half way back to shore, I became so weak and tired. I could barely life the paddle. I had NO idea how tired kayaking could make me. At one point I screamed at Scott "Get me the "f" back to shore" (I didn't say "f" though, I said the real thing). There was nothing he could do to help me. My paddling was really ineffective because I was so tired and my kayak kept turning the wrong way. I powered up the strength to get back, but honestly, I'm not sure I'm loving that hobby. My dad is buying a crazy nice boat that we can use at the lakes to fish in and pull tubes behind. That is WAY more my speed.
