My mom and her husband just took the boat out on the lake and turned off the engine to be able to hear the frogs and it wouldn& #39;t start again and no one could rescue them for 3 hours and they got really bad sunburns

If you& #39;re wondering what my childhood was like, she told me that and I was like "YOU DIDN& #39;T HAVE AN EMERGENCY PADDLE?!" and then asked if they thought about swimming for shore pulling the boat with a rope.

She said they hadn& #39;t put the emergency paddle in yet bc it was the first boat ride of the season and that they tried putting up the sun shade as a sail but it wasn& #39;t windy enough.

every year we need the emergency paddle on the first boat rid of the season, why would this season be different, mom?!

Also i got a rutabaga in the veggie box this week so i made pasties and when i told my mom I was making pasties her first response was "YOU MADE IT WITH RUTABAGA RIGHT?!"

sometimes i am extremely northern michigan lol
