In the late afternoon, there is laughter down by the lake.
"Wait, wait, wait wait wait," says Dennis, propped up on an elbow on the blanket, a foot or two away from the highest ebb of the water. He points with his free arm. "Hit the leaf."
Giggling, Jake sends the intrepid remote control fireboat in completely the wrong direction, out on the lake.
"Almost," says Dennis encouragingly, leaning over to take a look at the controller. "I think for forward, you want to shove that that way, maybe. Just a thought."
"Daaaaaad!" Jake complains, wriggling away with a bout of laughter. He can't escape the long arm of the law, though. Or, rather, the relatively long arm of the dad.
Have we mentioned the shrieks of laughter yet? Meanwhile, the fireboat sails here, there, and everywhere.
