A Day at the Lake

We traded chlorinated water for lake water on Thursday, joining Grandma Cecchin and cousin Marco at Lake Temescal in Oakland.

Weaning Joey off the SuperGoggles is obviously not going well.

Clara's life vest is a must, even in two feet of water. Being responsible for three kids around the water is a dicey proposition!

Evidence that our third was actually present; Grandma Cecchin introduces her to the lake from afar.


Joey spent much of the afternoon instructing Marco in mischief. He was an avid learner. They threw rocks, chased ducks, made sand angels, and splashed like mad men.

We're looking forward to many more trips here this summer!
