05.19.2012: The Future USA Olympic Kayaking Team

So, one of the whole reasons we came up to Watson Lake was that we saw we could rent kayaks and go kayaking around the gorgeous boulders.  Well, there was a little rental thing that rented them out of the parking lot....so later in the day, we did it.  Our original plan was to get a couple and spend the day out there on the kayaks, but once we were there, it didn't really seem reasonable to do that! Or like it would be as much fun as we imagined. Haha!  So we got one and took turns rowing out, and rowing back.  The boulder area was way on the other side of the lake, so we just stayed in our area, which was plenty for the kiddos.  So we all took turns on them with the kids....I think I lucked out with getting Nana....she seemed to know what she was doing.  She asked all the right questions right away....how to row, do you row together or separate, how do you turn....you know, all the logical things you need to know when you get into a kayak.  Once she knew, she was a pro!  We didn't go far though....she wanted to make sure everyone was in eyesight, just in case.  Both Vince and Brent came back at the end of their little excursion with that look of "I'm done!" And both were a tad wet haha!  Oh well! The boys both actually did really good...they got the hang of it!  And they LOVED it!
