Summer winding down

Lake Pleasant ..

Brad Graybill of Forks took his twin daughters to Lake Pleasant over the Labor Day weekend where they enjoyed the cooling bubbles while skiing on this hot summer’s day. Friday and Saturday were busy days for outdoor enthusiasts on the popular lake. Monday however brought too much wind with most boaters, swimmers, and kayakers shying away from the rough waters.

When the temperatures hit 92 as they did on Thursday evening Sept. 10 some find ways of cooling off as is seen here at Lake Pleasant where teenagers build a teeter-totter by using a log from the lake and placing it on an old pilling. An engineering feat. Photo by Lonnie Archibald
