Lake MacConaughy: Sun, Surf, & Shivering

Last weekend, Wes and I, along with friends Gwen and Tim, headed off to Lake MacCanaughy in Ogalalla, Nebraska. FYI: Lake Mac was creating by damming up the Platte River. Its 14 miles long, about 2 miles wide, and filled with runoff from the Rockies. Its located in the middle of miles of fields and farms. Our parents were gracious enough to babysit the kiddos, so we were excited about our adult weekend full of speed boats, tubing, and water skiing. (We also thought that we might enjoy some good dining and entertainment down in town. Wrong. There is NOTHING in Ogalalla...) In spite of the freezing cold water, we really enjoyed ourselves. The video below highlights our trip. Producer's Notes: 1) This video is rated PG-13 as water temperatures caused the utterance of a few profanities. 2) My favorite part of the movie is listening to everyone giggle in the background! Enjoy.

Your friends look SUPER fun. You're so lucky to have vaca'd in Nebraska with such fun folk. I would say we should do this annually, but I don't really think that's necessary. Maybe every other year eh provided the good lord promises warm enough weather to boat every day we're there. Fun times no matter where we are though! Our blog is to come.
