How to swim.
How to drive a boat.
How to catch crayfish with a flashlight and a willingness to walk along a "mucky" bottom in shallow water.
How to fish.
That the markers around Pistol Island are very confusing (only place I've ever dinged a prop on the lake, knock on wood).
That pet rabbits are not at all deterred by a swim if it means getting free (turns out you cannot trap one on the end of a dock...).
That Charlie Roberts (of Roberts Cove) had about the driest sense of humor of any person I ever met.
That many people go to the lake to drink themselves into a stupor every weekend.
That drifting in the middle of the broads watching the sunset with the engine off on a Summer evening is perhaps the most theraputic thing I can do.
That grilled food is 3x better if it's grilled on a boat.
That lots of people are just terrible at putting boats on trailers.
That courtesy is usually rewarded with courtesy.
That some people are insulted if you offer help with docking and that most are not...
