4th of July!

The mini-golf tournament took place toady, which Jenn deservedly recieved Rookie of the Year status by making it to the final round.

The dinner was a fantastic spread of turkey, mashed potatoes, etc.

Acquiring pictures of the evenings fireworks was difficult, so let's just say it was the best display ever witnessed. Imagine any city you've been to on Independence Day, and take those fireworks and set them off over a lake, but in 6 or 7 places all at once, because there are numerous cabins around the lake owned by numerously wealthy pyromaniacs. Yes, there was even some dynamite.

I felt privileged to have one of the better seats in the house, as Paddy and I took the motor boat onto the lake during the spolosions. This dramatically took a turn for the worse, however, as we found ourselves under attack by water balloons being flung from shore. This post will spare the gory details, but suffice to say Paddy sustained an injury to such an extent that he became incapacitated, and I unexpectedly earned my ship captains badge by bringing us back to shore.

As for who sent the fatal balloon into the night with physics even Einstein would be proud of, no one at the cabin will ever be able to claim for sure.
