Shaver Expedition

This morning we rented Kayaks in shaver. While it was nice to try something different, the experience wasnt REALLY cool just because the lake was packed with loud waverunners and boats.We paddled passed Shaver Island with the stupid people from LA that think they can own something in the middle of the lake. pfff. 
but no one was home. so we paddled back. We are thinking that it might be a better idea to do the kayaking thing up by Court Right where there are only people fishing in quiet boats.

Now Andrew is cooking a delicious rack of lamb with chimichurri sauce. Its way warmer (78 degrees) than this past weekend when we were here with Adam Rapp. Jumping in the cold lake felt good.

Good times with sweatshirts and small dogs

Well, look who is here with us this weekend!

Mr Rapp! who is studying for the California Bar exam so that one day he can be a real lawyer and take us out for expensive dinners. On the flip side Adam, if you fail the exam, you just dont have to be a real lawyer and we will take you out for dinners!

Adam did tons of studying and we did a lot of exploring. Right when Adam call it a day of studying, we killed him on a game of Settlers--and he thought he was winning all the entire game!
