Merwin Lake

We went to Merwin Lake the other day with Simon, with Dori Popescu and her family, with Marta and Bunicul and with Lelia Mann's girls. We had a great time swimming in the cool water, considering it was scorching hot outside. Seth had an awesome time too, lounging in mini camping chairs, on the blanket, and wading in the lake. Oh, the good old days of summer!





Here's Seth taking his first squeamish steps into the cold lake.



What is this stuff?



I could get used to this!



Aside from the Mohawk and the beer belly, he's a pretty good looking kid.



Doesn't he look like a little Buddah?







Dori and Seth



Seth contemplating the meaning of life.



We also had a great water fight with these nifty guns.



Simo decided to sit out on the battle and eat chips instead.





The boys went snorkeling.



Elena and Michael



The lake.

(Duh)



I can't tell you how much fun this is!



Marta and Bunicu.



Simon showing Michael how to fish.



Madalina and Seth.



Eating the blueberries we had picked the day before.



That chair is just the right size--for Seth that is.



We also jumped into the lake off of a rope swing.



It looks a lot scarier than it was.



This was Stephanie about to take the plunge.



Here goes Mom.



Here goes Dad.



Seth decided to sit this one out.
But it won't be long before he'll join us on the rope swing.
