To be continued.. now :)

To continue my story of the lake, the weekend was action packed! Like I mentioned before, Rich and I got our tattoos Saturday. His uncle also rented a pontoon boat that morning. While we were out we got pulled over by the State Water Patrol. We had people sitting in the two seats in the front, apparently you're not allowed to do that while the boat is moving. And there was a 12 year-old driving the boat at the time :O She looked like she felt pretty guilty, lol. So then he had us check for all the safety stuff, and we didn't have all of that either. This is not up to the rental company to make sure everything is there, it's up to the renter... how dumb is that? Someone who probably knows nothing about boating... (or they'd probably have their own boat...) Oh well, they only gave him a written warning, but the guy made his uncle get into his boat out in the middle of the lake and the two boats were rocking all over the place...

Sunday we just drove back home. Nothing too exciting, caught up on some sleep, because we were up late all weekend.

Monday was when Amber, Melisa and I went to Hermann to visit the wineries. It was a lot of fun, and the weather ended up being ok after it rained a little. We walked around and visited some of the little shops down by the river. It was awesome to tour the cellars and of the course the wine tasting was nice too! There was one, Oakglenn, that was up on a hill and overlooked the river! It was beautiful with all the leaves changing! Next time we'll definately have to stay down there!
