Well, we finally did it. We took Harper out on the boat for the first time. The last time we went up to the lake we stayed on the dock, not venturing out onto the lake. This time we left the dog at home and brought Harper for her first boating escapade . As first timers, Adam an I were naturally a little nervous about how she would do with the wind, sun, noise, etc. We put up the partial top so we could keep her in the shade, but there wasn't much we could do about the rest. To our amazement and delight, SHE LOVED IT!! Nothing fazed her out there. As long as she was fed on time and kept cool she was happy. She even got in her afternoon nap. It was a beautiful day weather wise, about 85 degrees and a little breezy. The lake wasn't crowded so Adam and I were able to relax and just enjoy the family.
In addition to her first day on the boat, Harper laughed for the first time. We have been getting smiles and even squeals for quite a while now, but this was a definite upgrade. After a little practice, we were able to get on on video.
