Regatta August 2-3 2008


Naomi with the sailboats off in the distance...waiting to see if the race was gonna happen or not.
Go Uncle T! He was out practicing and checking out the water( He's behind Keagan)

The race delay...the water is too choppy...maybe tomorrow

Nik and Nemo

And imagine that we are up north again however this time we are the guests of Nana and Papa, John and Rennae, at the "The Brown House" in Manistee. We again had a blast at the beautiful mighty Lake Michigan. We had a wonderful surprise that Travis and Jeff's long time friend Carl who is in the Navy showed up for just long enough to participate in the Regatta before deploying.....we hope for the last time. We pray that he comes home quickly and safely. However the race was delayed because the water was a little choppy on Saturday...they actually waited until Sunday to race. Nik and Eddie sailed this year.....not together however. Nik went with Papa, John, and they got 3rd Place in the Double-Handed race and a really cool white flag to put in his room. Eddie manged to get a 1st place in the Double Handed race with Kurt Van Volkenburg a member of the Lakeland Recreational Association and a good friend of John and Rennae's. Thank you John and Rennae once again for you hospitality.
