Our Myrtle Beach campground is really a fabulous resort. They have so many amenities to take advantage of, so one day I said "let's take a paddle boat ride in the lake". I for one, was very excited and so were the kids. Scott, in his usual form, was reluctant. He would have rather stayed at the rolling condo & had a beer. I won & off to the paddle boats we went. As you can see it was very sunny, so we all look like wackos squinting for the family shot (go ahead & laugh-we did). At least we have proof that we took the adventure, because next year when this kiddies say "let's do that again", I am going to show the photo & say "we already did & once was enough".
Anyway, we had payed for a 1 hour excursion & began paddling our little 4 seater paddle boat, but we really didn't go very fast. Now mind you, it has probably been at least 30 years since the last time I was in a paddle boat, but I thought they should go a little faster then we were going. Scott & I also seriously under estimated the physical shape we were in. Somehow we managed to travel about 40 yards away from the station & realized that we also had to paddle back-CRAP! We decided to turn around and go back. Scott & I were both very concerned that we were going to paddle our way to heart attacks. Thankfully we made it back & took the rest of the night to catch our breath!
