Late Afternoon On The Pond

Great Blue Heron in Flight
Louisa on the ski boat-I wonder if she will ski in a couple of years?!?!
Scott carving his way through the water-notice the yellow ball which is part of the course he skis.
A shot of the boat going through the course. The boat has a computer in it that controls the speed for each skier. The course made up of  round, inflatable, buoys, sinks and rises with a compressed air system. It stays in all winter under the ice.
Scott skis a lot , and it is fun to watch him and the other folks go screaming around the balls of the course. Evan and I were out in our boat the other night and watched from the water. We like to do that, and take some pictures of the skiers as well as the wildlife. The light from the setting sun sometimes makes for great pictures.

Great pics, always so fun sharing the pond with you guys during a good slalom session. Such a relaxed feeling to be behind the wheel or behind the wake!!!
