Jetskiing!!

Went jetskiing with our new friends this past weekend Ryan and Teresa. Ryan has a Kawasaki stand up jetski. It was the first time out for the War Chariot tube! It’s sooo awesome. Way cooler than our past tubes.. it’s very difficult to flip it, but we managed to flip it 3 times

When we were hanging out beachside we saw 2 boats smack into each other (sides grazed each other). One boat was just idling and another came flying by at like 50mph at least.. and bounced off it. I dunno how you hit a boat that’s standing still.. but they managed to. Didn’t look like too much damage though. Probably dents and cosmetic mostly.

Then we saw a patrol boat clearing out the cove next to us and they said helicopters will be landing to get water. Then we smelled fire and saw smoke behind us and then the ash came down. We got all excited to watch the helicopter come to get water and after like 10 minutes it was like 5 helicopters.. constantly getting water from the lake. We decide to go tubing and then got this photo and realized the fire is at Pyramid lake in the brush behind us!!

We went tubing for a bit more and then went back to our camp area and they were evacuating because the fire was getting close. We moved to a small beach area with an awesome shelter and then we started wakeboarding and wakeskating. I still didn’t manage an up for a good amount of time on the wake skate but Teresa was awesome on the wakeboard even with the choppy helicopter waters.
