A boat ride was just what she needed.
She’d never been on a boat before. She stepped in carefully, Grant’s hand at her elbow.
Though there were people down at the boat dock, they merely waved to her. No one questioned her. After she donned the life jacket he pointed to, he started the engine and she relaxed against the back seat.
Grant steered the boat quietly out to the main channel, then pushed the speed higher. The wind whipped her hair behind her, cooling her warm cheeks and drying the perspiration against her neck. She placed a hand to hold her hat on, feeling the wind against her face.
What bliss!
Grant pointed out some of the more beautiful homes and buildings built into the hills and cliffs.
Staring at them, she noted that these homes ranged from luxurious to humble, and all the way between. Sunny felt stunned. Before this, she had seen little of her community. Did people really live this kind of life?
“Grant, do you live here all year?”
He appeared strong at the helm, sitting with relaxed purpose, the late sunshine shining on his face. He turned from staring ahead of him. “I do now. I didn’t before starting the stable. But I’ve been here two years.”
“In the winter, too?”
“Sure. That’s my quiet time. The lake is much more peaceful then.”
“I imagine so, but…don’t you get lonely?”
“Not a bit. There’s things to do in winter. Catching-up things. Things you put off from summer. Even a few customers. You’ll see.”
Of course…yes…she hadn’t thought of anything past getting the resort open, but she could imagine things she could do in winter. The stipulation said she’d have to live and work here a year. She understood that demand better now. What would it be like then, with no customers?
Well, like other things, she pushed those worries aside, trusting God to take care of them. Sighing, she decided she’d think about that tomorrow, too. At the moment all she wanted was to enjoy this wonderful, unexpected gift of a boat ride.
And the oh-so-pleasant company of Grant.
