Buckhorn Lake,
back in the early 60’s, we were visiting Joe and family at his cottage. He had a nice power boat suitable for waterskiing. Joe generously offered to give us a turn at skiing.
Eventually I had my turn, but to no avail, I would manage to get myself pulled under the water several times and when I did get up then I could not stay up. Ended up giving after I got too exhausted. That was my one and only attempt at water skiing.
Who ever reads this can have a good laugh at my expense.
