We spent three sunny weeks at Emma with relatives coming and going. At the peak there were 27 of us, with only Karen and the Hakls unable to join us. The new pontoon boat, 3-man tube and paddle boards were a hit. Another first this year was Davin, with Garry's help,filleting a fish catch.The water was as warm as the air and many hours were spent therein, but the hot tub was still well used. Beach activities included paddle board races, football, mini-olympics, digging the "biggest hole ever" and just plain lounging. Activities continued until well after sundown when scrumptious meals, cribbage tournaments, board games,and birthday parties for Johnny and Owen were enjoyed. All of the children, but primarily Mio, loved Winston and Buddy, who were not counted in the 27 tally!
