Wakeboarding in Autumn

My oldest brother Danny bought a boat earlier this summer--I had been eager to get home so I could go out and play before it got too cold. Monday it was just warm enough in the afternoon for a final trip down to Lake James before the boat gets winterized until next year.

The water was almost pleasant (though you'll notice, I am a wimp and wore a wetsuit!) and we were one of the only boats on the lake so we had plenty of fun. I had not wakeboarded in over a year so it was awesome to get up again and my brother, who usually skis, got up for the first (and 2nd, and 3rd, and 4th) time on the wakeboard, which I suspect was due to my impeccable driving.
