Finding the Dock Piece

Remember back in April when Kristen took a dip in the lake to try and find the missing dock piece?  Yeah she didn't find it then.  Misha tried again a month later and was still unsuccessful.  When Patrick was visiting for Amy's graduation over Memorial Day weekend, he spent a couple of hours trying to search for the missing dock piece.  It wasn't until he had a little help from Christopher that Patrick finally found it.  It was a lot deeper than Misha and Kristen ventured out and took Chris quite the effort just to bring it up from the bottom of the lake while Patrick tried to hold the position on the paddle board--a little harder than you might imagine with the bit of current in the lake.

The dock piece was covered in mud and a little bent, but still very salvageable.  Thank you so much to Patrick for his diligence and for all who braved the cold water.  The piece is now securely zip tied to the dock.
