One day we paddled to some 10-12 foot cliffs near our house and talked Claire into jumping off. After trying to talk her into actually jumping off the cliff she decided she wanted me to hold her hand and jump with her. Bad idea. I jumped. She didn't. So she landed on her side. Lesson learned.
Boat wise, the boys really got good with the surfing this year. Carter and Jared can stay in the wake/pocket and just get pushed by the wave for as long as they want. They can ride up and down the wave like you see in the ocean. Allen still struggles to stay in the pocket for more than a few seconds (he is blaming the board-too small for his height) and I just enjoy holding on to the rope. Claire tried many times but has yet to really get it.

i read somewhere that when going at slow speed for wake surfing there is some risk of CO from exhaust affecting a person sitting in the rear of the boat (though not the surfer themselves). you all probably know this stuff much better than me, but just thought i'd mention it.
btw, enjoyed the sunset -- almost like being there.
Great photos, hope you can still get a few more excursions in before it gets cold.
The boys make the surfing look so easy! Enjoyed the pix and especially the sunset -- what a beautiful way to end your day on the lake.
