Weekend at the Beach

With the extreme temp.'s last weekend, there was no other place that I would have rather been then at the cottage. I am not sure how the people inland handled the heat, but we had not problems taking it in, while we sat lake front either watching the ball games, or going to the beach.
Since it has been such a dry summer, we have to make sure that we conserve water when we are at the cottage which consists of not taking a shower every day, and making sure that you only flush the toilet every third pee (please do if it is a #2 though). With not being able to take a shower every morning when you get ready for the day, this meant that we would have to go down to the lake to bathe. The temp. of the water was just perfect , even first thing in the morning. (In the picture you can see Smoky, Matt, and Curt passing the bar of soap around, betting all squeaky clean)
On Saturday, the teams managed to luck out and only have to play either early in the morning, or late at night, which was nice that they did not have the play in the mid day heat. Since both teams had a break on Saturday afternoon, a few people off of each Ideal team came out to the cottage, and we went down to the beach and played some games both inland and out in the water. It was a lot of fun, and Jill even managed to kick the boys butts in a game of ring toss!!!!
