The Paddle Boat Work Out!!




Drake spotted the paddle boats off the shore edge of the Shoreline Park Reserve Lake and thought we should go for a ride! We figured Dad would do all the work with Drake and I just laying back and enjoying the scenery! So we climb into the paddle boat with Dad in the front on one side and Drake in the front to steer. Mom climbed into the back behind Drake and we were ready to go! "Come on Dad...lets go!" Oh...one problem...Dad's feet could not fit into the peddle slots. You have got to be kidding! By now it was clear we were going no where! Either Mom had to buck up to the front and take control of the situation or the trip was over! OK...this could be scary. Mom had to move to the front, Dad to the back and Drake was clearly off the hook because he could not reach the peddles. So as you can see from the pictures Drake was relaxed, cool and calm, none of this phasing him one bit! We eventually moved things around (meaning Mom & Dad) and paddled the paddle boat around the lake. We did not wonder too far, since this was a one man...no, I mean woman show...I was afraid we might not make it back!!
