A pleasant evening on Lake Wingra…

We spent last evening at a small exhibition of watercraft, where Sophie bravely sampled everything they had to offer — from canoes and kayaks to standing paddleboards — despite her own fairly extreme reluctance to get her face wet, and Christy even managed to talk Haley into a tandem kayak. This was a bit of a stretch, since she watched me spill into the water — a whole two or three feet of water, even! — from a canoe in early March and since then has been absolutely traumatized, refusing to get anywhere near a boat. But she leapt out of the kayak bouncing and grinning and announcing, “I don’t like canoes, but I like kayaks better than anything!” So I’ll mark this one down as a success.
