Skaneateles Lake, NY - Swimming

We only had one really warm day while were at the lake, so there wasn't much time for swimming. But, we couldn't leave without taking a dip in the crystal clear lake. Unfortunately, Maya wasn't a fan of the 'invigorating' temperature of the lake, nor the giant 3 to 4 inch waves. Eventually, we found a way for her to enjoy a little swim.

Maya seems a bit concerned about the lake...

...okay, maybe more than a bit concerned.

Oh, the horror!

Feet in the water is fun, if it's Daddy's feet.

Maya tries out a slightly smaller, warmer body of water.

Complete with sailboat.


Even more fun with Lizzy.

Momma takes a quick dip.

Best place to swim...ever.

Skaneateles Lake, NY - Boats

No trip to the lake is complete without getting out on the water. Lizzie took her first spin on the "six," the outboard motor boat and expertly rowed in the scull. There were several short sails. Great Gram and Grandpa snuck out on the canoe and Maya drove the big boat. Wow!!

Canoeing is great for the young at heart.
