Sailing on Long Lake

One of the highlights of vacation at Long Lake is sailing--and thanks to family members willing to watch our children, Jeremy and I got to sail nearly every day! Jer took Josiah out on my parents' Sunfish one day when the wind was slight so he wouldn't get too scared.

Josiah ended up enjoying the short sail, though Jer reported that every time they got a little puff of wind or tacked, Josiah sucked in his breath and said, "The winds are changing! A storm is coming!"

Out on the water!

The girls wanted a chance to sit in the boat, too, but they didn't go sailing
