Nate the Great . . . . . . part 1

Happy Birthday Nate!

July 23rd is Nate's birthday. We thought that we'd put up a few pictures. I had so much fun picking out old pictures that I will have to post them all in 2 parts.

As a crew member. Sheet that sail!
Every Wednesday for a couple of summers, Nate and Gretchen were crew on a yacht that raced on Lake Michigan.
Here's a pic of Nate.

Nate is steering the ferry that is taking them up the coast of Alaska.

Nate dressed for winter sled dog racing.
They did actually go out on a ride with a team of sled dogs.
Their sled was on wheels for the summer.

Hmm . . . . can you guess why he was named that???
