Dane and Wendy, Dave and Jane, Shawn and Erika, Travis and Michelle (not pictured), Layne and Diana, Jeff and Angie, Dave and Tina, Chris and Ginger, not pictured: Troy and Kathy, Jen and Matt. This year we went in October around the 13th. It was a little chilly but we had a blast with the parasail. Layne and Diana had bought one and this was the first year we used it. As usual, Shawn was the ginnie pig!
This was also the year Troy and Kathy had a very large rat on their yacht. They could hear him eating their food each night but could never find him. Dave decided to write a song about "Big Troy" and the rat and sang it while playing his guitar. He had everyone rolling with laughter as he included all of our names in the song/story.
One night, it rained and those of us who were unlucky enough to be sleeping on top of the houseboat, tried to all fit under the awning. We draped extra tarps to keep the rain from pelting on us. In the middle of the night, Dane got up to use the restroom and slipped and fell on top of Dave. Dave yelled, "Dane, quit screwing around!!"
We also had kneeboard wars this year and had our first female competitor- Ginger. Everyone watched as Shawn didn't let up on a female. She took alot of water to the face! This was the first year we winterized the houseboat. We must have done alright, because everything worked the next year.
