Sammamish Summer - The Lake

One of my favorite parts of summers in Washington is spending time at Lake Sammamish. My dad has spent a lot of time cleaning up the little beach property and we went down there almost every other day to boat, swim, and just take a break from the heat. This year was especially fun because Sophie loves water and she got to experience so many new things.

Dave and I also went out on the boat several times to wake board and water ski. I never push myself too hard (I'm a pro at skiing without getting my hair wet), but I felt I was taking more aggressive turns than last year. Dave also made a lot of progress on learning to jump on the wake board. He had a few spectacular falls, but also some great jumps!
