Waves On the Lake


Last Sunday my husband and I went boating with a couple of friends. We were on a very big lake, in their beautiful motorboat outfitted with plush seats and plenty of comfy places to lie out and sunbathe. Basically what we did was drive around the lake and wave at the people in all the other boats who were doing the same thing. Back and forth we went, occasionally bump-bump-bumping over the wakes caused by the other boats and trying to keep lunch down. Conversation was minimal due to the noise of the motor.

For some reason, almost all boaters wave and smile at each other as they pass by on the open seas, but drivers of autos on the open road only honk angrily and give each other the finger. I wonder why.
