Brenda took Connor for his first kayak paddle in the morning and then they played in the water.
The Amish brought back young James (8) and young Jared (9) made his first visit to Sundown. The boys had brought their fishing poles but didn't catch a thing all day. They watched with envy as Brenda and Connor cooled off in the lake. So they asked their dads if it was okay to go swimming with Brenda and Connor. They quickly peeled off their shoes and socks (pants and shirts stayed on) and cautiously accepted coaching from Brenda on using the swim noodles and foam swim boards. They are not good swimmers. The Amish boys even took turns paddling the kayak on their own.
Later in the afternoon we took all the boys for a long boat ride in the Lund. I deliberately did not take direct pictures of the Amish boys since none of them really want their pictures taken.
Lots of plywood got applied to the roof today and started to apply house wrap.
The Amish plan to shingle the roof early next week. They are bringing extra help on Monday.
Here's where we are on the project:
