Hartley Family Reunion

This July Ben & Sara came up to Canada for just over a week. We spent a chunk of that time out at the lake getitng some work done, some sun and some cacthing up too. Everyone had a blast, even Sara at 7 1/2 months pregnant. We made the cedar hot tub, the fence bordering the north property, fished, swam, drank, suntanned, drank some more and laughed even more. It was so much fun. Isaac didnt want to leave. Here are some highlights from that week.




Ben & Rob pounding posts for the fence.











Making the sides flush and cinching them tight before putting the clamps on.














Aric and Bud building the seats. They even routered and sanded the edges so we dont get slivers! Yeah!














Isaac and me! The water was cold but that was nice as the weather was about 30d degrees the whole time we were there. Isaac got enough courage to float with us on the mats and not just lay on them on the dock!











The view from the dock.















We took a break from the lake and got cleaned at the Cranbrook Aquatic Centre. Isaac didnt want to swim much, I think we has afraid of th waves, but he liked the waterslide. (a trip to West Ed might be in order soon!)




The finished product and us enjoying it!
