Trip to Keuka

Friday evening we headed over to Keuka Lake (another finger lake west of us) and spent the night at Mike's parent's lake house. The weather was BEAUTIFUL and it was fun to spend time with the folks and Mike's grandparents.

One of the big projects for the weekend was to put in the boat dock. Mike, his dad, John (Mike's grandfather) and a nice neighbor tackled the job and were very successful. The real challenge was getting into the COLD water (which actually still had ice floating on top the day before). Luckily they had these handy waders that kept them dry and protected.
Here's Mike in his monkey suit - quite an outfit!

Here they are putting the dock in. Thank goodness it was such a beautiful day!

And here is the neighbor's dog - Reggie. This pup was quite an entertainer - he went into a full-on spasm after taking a few steps into the freezing cold water.
