Day at the lake…
We had lots of plans for Memorial Day. Things that had to get done around the house, etc. In the morning we took the new RC truck to the local track and ran it for a bit. After banging it around a bit we stopped at the hobby store for some bits and then decided to go to the lake with all the other idiots.
We called up the marina and said we’d be out at 12:30. The boat belongs to my parents and they keep it at a marina in dry storage. You call up the marina at least an hour before you want to go out and they pull it out of the rack and drop it in the water ready to go. A pretty good arrangement if you ask me. The boat is a 22′ SeaDoo Islandia. It’s a jetboat that’s a blast to drive.
All I can say is that it was damn hot out on the lake today. All we wanted to do was get into a cove and get in the water. We pulled in to Little Devil’s Cove and hopped in. The water temp is about perfect. Devil’s Cove is _the_ place to be to party on Lake Travis and a bit busy for my tastes. Little Pirate’s is less so. While we were there a LifeFlight helicopter flew back in to Devil’s Cove, proving that it’s all fun and games until someone gets hurt, then it’s fucking hilarious. We hung out for a couple hours and headed in when it looked like some thunderstorms were trying to build. Dropping off the boat is as easy as picking it up. You pull in, turn it off, grab your stuff, and leave. They handle the rest. This is so much easier than trailering it.
