Slow Boat Through Grafton

Yesterday Joanna saw something surprising in our back yard.



People were fishing behind our house! Not only that they said they had caught some.

This made Joanna want to go out in a boat. Rick promised to take Joanna on a canoe ride. She was a little nervous about it remembering seeing our friend Greg and his son Jonah tip the thing over last year.



We convinced her that if she sat still and did what she was told this would not happen to her. She put on her life vest (yellow of course) and they got in the canoe.




Soon they were on their way. I walked up the road to watch them. Rick and I later debated who got the most exercise. He had to row but I walked over the big hill on Logan Path the get the pictures. I think this photo may support my side.



Zooming in it looks like someone might be slacking there.

Soon they were coming back in and Zena was very happy to see them.



After getting out and hauling the canoe out of the water Joanna said "Let's go again!"
