July 4th Staycation at Lake Mendocino


Lake Mendocino at 7:32 a.m ...

The view from up on the hill...

Jeff on his first jet ski ride!

We arrived at 7:30 a.m. and left at 6:45 p.m. The lake is only one mile from our house, although we spent the day down at the south boat ramp which is about seven miles by car. It was a beautiful day, with much less smoke in the air. We were right on the beach and Ron and Wendy brought their boat and jet ski... what a blast. Alison and Chelsea were also there for the day. The entire Skidmore Clan came down around lunch time with their myriad of jet skiis... and boy was it fun! They're usually the ones with a motor home on the beach, so it was fun saving them a spot by our baby motor home. Jeff road a jet ski for the first time ever... and had lots of fun. I rode for the first time in several years... and much to my surprise did NOT have neck issues... just lower back pain. It wasn't any worse than a long day driving or shopping... YAHOO! We also went out in the boat... FUN! FUN! FUN! Happy 4th a day late to all of you!
