Day 110- July 8- Susan Amon
What a day, AGAIN! I knew it would be a day of new tan, or burn as it would turn out... I slept in a bit late and tried to get a jump on finishing up a few blog entries. I also was checking out some real estate websites, seeing what was out and about. I could tell even by 10 that today would be another scorcher.
I had a loose plan with Susan to go to her house on Doctor's Lake to go kayaking. She called and we settled on 1 pm, she'd pick me up and we'd head out of town to her place. We got out there and the lake was rather choppy. Many more waves than even last night at Milo. We were not deterred and paddled out towards the Manor Inn, fighting constantly against the wind to go where we wanted to. The sun and water were warm and I couldn't have imagined a nicer place to spend an afternoon. We were out on the Lake for over 2 hours I think. It flew by. Sue and I always have really awesome discussions. We talked the entire paddle about family, real estate, politics and life. I've enjoyed having these moments the last few summers connecting with her again. She was my grade four teacher and I grew up with her son, Chris. Our elementary school was small, and our class was very close knit. I will always fondly remember her class and the school events, like pioneer days, that we attended while in grade 4. Sue is creative, open and caring. She is adventurous as well and recently started learning to drive a motorcycle. I'm always interested in hearing what she's been up to every time we get together. Enjoy the picture! I snapped them after our paddle. Notice the beautiful painting by one of my former classmates, Beth Sweeney, dedicated to Susan's son.
