Platty's day at the lake

Just reporting in...today I wore my Yachtmaster to the lake. The look of shock and horror when my husband saw me raise my watch-clad arm out of the water was absolutely priceless. Checked everything out afterward and, good news: the band did not stretch at all!

The boat must have been docked....everyone knows that a watch band subjected to tidal movement will undoubtedly stretch.....

This post is absolutely useless without a picture of you coming out of the water.

LOL! While I have a water resistant watch, I don't think my iPhone is water resistant, and I didn't take a camera with me this time. My sis snapped a pic of me in the lake with my two dogs...maybe I can get her to send it over!

Mines at the lake everyday since I run a marina and resort. It loves it.
