Paddle boarding on Donner Lake.
It’s my new religion.
And I know you’re waiting for the punch line, waiting to hear I fell face into the water, or maybe knocked Alpha Man off his board, or Youngest … But for a change, there was no I Love Lucy moment!
Can you believe it? I’m so proud.

I am impressed. Great pictures. Now don’t get too cocky ok??

Oh Jill, how fun! I’d love to try that.
But please be careful. Don’t be racing Alpha Man or anything crazy like that. We like you all in one piece.

That looks so fun, but I don’t think my balance is good enough for that!

I would so fall in. Just don’t have the balance to go paddle boarding. However, it looks like fun.

Cool! Hey, be careful those Lucy moments may be saving up for a doozy. If you are paddle boarding does that mean your allowed more cookies? I can see the benifits.

I’ve never seen paddle boarding before. Looks so cool. Love the scenery. Will miss you over the weekend.

Hmm. Is it just me, or does that seem like exercise???
Posted on September 4th, 2009 at 9:07 amDonna M says:
That looks like fun.
I’ve never heard about paddle boarding. I would fall in for sure! Love how clear that water is, so beautiful where you live. This long weekend I’m sure the area is over run with tourists!! 
Me, I’m staying home!! 
Everyone enjoy the long weekend, have fun, travel safe, eats lots of good food & enjoy family & friends.

You know, I really don’t like any kind of boat-type things at all–but that looks like a lot of fun!
I’m so glad you had an outing with no disasters.
Of course we all know that now something really spectacular will happen this weekend, so we expect a full report on Monday…

Yeah Jill!

Looks like it would be a lot of fun. Way to go on not falling in!
Posted on September 4th, 2009 at 2:51 pmStephanee says:
Dang, it takes a lot of strength, balance and inner muscles to do that paddle boarding, at least from what I’ve heard and seen from people who do it in San Diego Bay. You must be in great shape – Go Jill!!!

You know it begs to be asked, does the name of this lake have anything to do with the Donner party ? Inquiring minds want to know. You do look like you are having a great time.

Yay! Paddle boarding for the win!
It looks so fun – I’m definitely jealous.

I’ve never heard of paddle boarding! Looks like so much fun! I am SO adding that to my bucket list…. especially if it can make me look as fit as you! (I think you’re folling us about all the cookie consumption)

Looks great! I love the area in which you live!
