It's over there that this needs to be heard as loudly as possible. Your help in that much appreciated.

I'm just back from my first ever attempt at waterskiing. It was fun. Now going to enjoy the sunset over the pool.

So.  How did it go?

I usually sail out the town in Minnesota called Lake City that claims to be the "birthplace" of waterskiing in 1896.

After you get your feet under you on two skis, try a slalom ski.  That's one ski.  Then you can dart about and have a lot more sense of freedom and adventure.  You can lean over (if the boat's going fast enough) to where your shoulder almost touches the water.  Then you zing across the wake, go airborne, hit the water hopefully still standing, ski to the end of the arc, and reverse it.  Don't worry about falling.  Crashes are spectacular, and part of the fun.

I guess your ankle is all better.

Glad for the re-visit. The diary got real staying power in Orange this time.
