Summer on the Lake

We have a wonderful neighborhood beach on Lake Pend'Orielle. It is perfect for an evening swim or an afternoon of playing in the water and sand. This summer we have been teaching the kids to water ski. Our good friends, the Corbridges, have a great ski boat and we have our little Livingston boat. Between the two, the kids have had plenty of time on skis, the tube and knee board. They are all doing great. I hope they look back and have great summer memories with their friends and sisters.

What a glorious location. Mike, the kids and I think "an evening swim or an afternoon of playing the the water and sand" sounds just about perfect. Sandpoint truly seems like a little piece of paradise here on earth.
