We were lucky to be in Seattle for this Green Lake event. It was lots of fun and we could cool off with a swim in the lake. Ben and two friends paddled the serpent boat designed by the friends' father. They won the first heat but got blown off course and came in third in the final runoff. The boat and crew won a $100 certificate from an Italian restaurant for their overall appearance.
