Nothing Much Else Happened: August 15, 1978

Today, I finally found Tracy next door. He was down by the lake waiting for his friend, Chris, to come pick him up so they could go water skiing. I asked if I could come along to watch. We were out for almost 3 hours, and when I got back, Craig was waiting for me. We played a little ping pong and a little pool, and really had a ball -- until Tracy came over. I've learned that 3 is a crowd and it's just not worth it. He (Tracy) finally left. We had a big dinner party tonight with all of Craig's family, my Mom and Dad, and Aunt Sherry and Uncle Don.

Nothing Much Else Happened: August 13, 1978

Today was one of the best days of my vacation! We went to Kim Ogilvie's house with 3 dogs in the car! It's true, we picked up another dog, "Checkers", last night! Well, let's get down to business. After lunch, we went down to the lake (about 30 yds. away) got some skis on, and got right up the first time water skiing! I went around the lake once and wiped out once. My second time, I was almost slaloming! We left around 4:00 P.M. for the G.O. (Gregg-Ogilvie) farm and arrived about 7:30 P.M. We'll be here until tomorrow.
