We spent Labor Day relaxing with Scott's boss and his wife in Pepin, WI. We had a picnic lunch and spent the afternoon cruising the Mighty Mississippi. We left from their docking station on Lake Pepin and drove upstream to the Lake City Marina before cruising back downstream. It was so much fun to be out on the water. What a beautiful day!
I think from Jacob's perspective it might have been his favorite day of his life so far. He got to see boats, (the entire drive from Hastings to Pepin he pointed out all of the boats he saw), hold the kitten (which actually sat in his lap), sit on a tractor, watch a train go by, steer the boat, feed the ducks, skip his afternoon nap, and see more boats. We got off the river about 5pm and made the beautiful drive back to Hastings. Jacob fell asleep within about 5 minutes of leaving, but when we got to Hastings and stopped the car he opened his eyes and groggily pointed out the window and said "BOAT!". I wonder if he was dreaming of boats?
