Rough River Lake trip with the Greens

Robert often goes down to "the Lake" with the Greens.  They have a house on Rough River Lake - the got it about 4 years ago and it has been a source of family vacation and joy for them.  

This weekend they invited Robert to go to the lake with them, but it also fell on Memorial Weekend - which, this year, happens to also be the State Cup championship for Robert's Soccer team in Bowling Green, KY.  They were so nice - they offered for us to stay there instead of staying in Bowling Green.  It was only 1 - 1 1/2 hours drive away, so we were thrilled to take them up on their offer.  Robert's games were very spread out - 10:00 on Saturday and then not until 5:00 the next day.  

As soon as we arrived at the lake on Saturday they were ready to spoil us on the lake.  Harley and Alex took Robert on a Jet Ski ride.  On the way back - awe!!!!  Robert's driving.  How cool is that.  Harley said he had a lot of learning to do ...

Robert driving the Jet Ski

Wow - look at them go

After a short time - while Maureen and I unloaded the food and fun stuff for the boat, Harley put the Jet Ski away and we took the boat out.  SUPER FUN!!!

At first we loaded the boys into the tube - They had a blast!  Harley likes to give them a ride for their lives.

Look at them fly

Rough River is a huge lake that is a dammed up river ... so it's in the shape of swollen rivers leading into a bigger river (which is what it is). :)  After driving them around for a nice long time, we stopped at the cliffs to do some jumping.  Robert loved it - I always worry a little.

Ready ... Set ...

Go!

After a great day on the lake, Maureen and I go in to prepare dinner (I go back and forth helping Harley bring in things from the boat ride, and helping her).  They are amazing hosts - I had to hunt to find things to do to be helpful.  While we cleaned up and prepared for dinner the boys went outside to play soccer (go figure).

They also play cards and chess inside.

And Corn Hoe outside.

The next day we are back on the boat again.  

First on the water is Harley - he finally has a chance to waterski.  He's very good

Second is Robert on the Wake Board

Then Aaron on the Wake Board

And Alex - way to go!!!

 And finally some tubing for some fun!
