This is a big one: I successfully flipped over in a kayak and did a "wet-exit". 3 times actually. I also did a self-rescue. It was scary, but Jon was coaching me through it the whole way. He was very patient - as it took me a long time to get up the nerve to do it. :) I'm proud of myself.

Also we cleaned our gutters when they were DRY. That was new and definitely the way to go. Much easier than cleaning out the wet, rotting muck that's normally in there. We had little trees sprouting from the gutters, so we figured it was time. Super hot day, but we each did half. Not as daunting of a task that way... and it feels good to have it done!
