Pine Lake Picnic

I work with a number of very dedicated and hard working managers, so it was nice to take a day off together and enjoy some of the silly side of life.  When you work the kind of hours we do, you forget how the simplest things can brighten your day.



This past weekend 3 of us, spent the day at Pine Lake for the annual Pine Lake Picnic.  You may recall an earlier post where I highlighted a few photos of this amazing Lake.  The sun was quite cooperative and highlighted the turquoise water beautifully.



With all the old time games, it's easy to forget you aren't a little kid anymore...and join in the fun.  Although my old knees would never let me do the sack race it was just as much fun taking pictures.



Who wouldn't enjoy a tug-o-war contest with a giant beaver?  And such a friendly fellow too!


The highlight for most was the canoe race across the lake and back again.  People gathered around to watch four separate heats of the race.



Like most high pressure games, there were a few mishaps along the way...




...and the in the finals, the race was on right to the finish...the team on the left won by a hair.
