Waterskiing

So on Saturday our ward had a waterskiing activity.  It was perfect weather- maybe the last summer weather of the year? sniff sniff sniiiiiiff.  Anyway, noone had a boat, we skied the boatless way.  What, you’ve never heard of boatless skiing?  Neither had I.  You just need some ski-lift type cables in the water, and you sit on the dock and then when your rope gets going, you follow it around.  Our ward rented the whole setup for the morning.  Here’s Brett on the wakeboard.

Hazel thought she’d give the kneeboard a try.

She got this far, and then chickened out.  :)

Jethro kneeboarded like a pro!  For the first little while, until he fell off.  :)

Brett on the wakeboard again.  He skied, wakeboarded, slalomed, and surfed.

Then we all played in the water and sand and had a barbeque.

I have never heard of such a thing. . . so cool. I love how confident Hazel looks putting on her lifejacket and then the next picture. . . not so much :)

I just asked Steve if he'd ever heard of boatless water skiing. . . he said one of the mayoral candidates wanted to put one of these in downtown Ogden.
