I rode around the west side of nearby Bass Lake today and it was jammed. Cars and trucks parked along the edge everywhere they could. Sun canopies by the dozen along the water‘s edge and groups of people in and out of the water everywhere. Boats of all kinds and dozens of jet skis dotted the lake. A heavy set couple dumped their’s on its side trying to make a sharp turn tossing them into the water and it rolled over completely upside down. They managed to upright it but neither of them could climb back on! The women dog paddled I guess, cause she sure wasn’t swimming, and made it back to the shore, luckily just 50 yards or so. The guy stayed with the ‘bike’ and the wake of all the other boats zooming around pushed...man and machine safely back to shore.
It was really pretty funny to watch and I’m glad they were close to shore and wearing vests. I’ve never ridden a jet ski but they sure look like fun. Maybe I’ll rent one, wonder if I could climb back on?!
I can’t swim a lick though.
