Making Waves

WATER MEMORIES
• A canoe trip down the St. Croix river where the canoe flips over and tosses three teen-age girls into the raging river water.

• Spending the long summer afternoons waterskiing around the lake, going side-by-side with your boyfriend.

• Sailboating on Lake Superior around the Apostle Islands.

• Swimming around the edge of one of the Apostle Islands. The rocks feel slimy and smooth. The water is invigorating but the sun is baking the tops of our heads.

• Houseboating with the family on Lake Superior. Parking the boat at various islands and plunging into the chilly northern waters.
