Pretty Cool Huh?

Barefoot skiing...not sure my feet
would like it.

Doing a few tricks while barefooting.























Our friend Jon is amazing on the water. We went out on the water with him, he needed a boat driver so he could ski. Well, I got some cool shots of him. He barefoots, air-chairs, wakeboards, etc. He just had back surgery last September and this was his first outing since then. I thought he did pretty well! I have to tell you, when you barefoot, the boat is running pretty darn fast, about 50mph. He literally jumps out of the boat grabs the Boom and starts skiing....it's amazing. My sister and her husband were with us on the boat and they didn't know what was going on---just that we were cookin' across the water, when he jumped out their eyes were as big as half-dollars! Just like mine were the first time I saw it!! Enjoy these pics.

Oh gosh, I miss water so much! We had a lake cabin and a boat when I was still at home in my younger years. We had soooooo much fun at the lake. I love to ski, but haven't in about.....25 years or so. I doubt I could even do it anymore. We have a lake about 40 miles away...but it is not a pretty lake, and the water is dirty looking, you can't even eat the fish out of it because they test for high levels of...something, can't remember.

I love all the pictures, the one of you and your sis, is great.

Glad yall didn't have really bad weather. I have been wondering about you and Paula with all the tornado's up in that area. Been praying that yall stay safe.

Have a great day
