Floating Pov

   It appeared the summer holiday was in full swing, as the lake was bustling with people engaged in various beachy activities.  Despite the crowds, Jack decided to take a stroll along the path that rimmed the large body of water.

   The path curved around a small, pond-like inlet.  In the middle of the pond there was a large pontoon boat, and on top of this boat sat two RV's stacked one on top of the other.  Perched high atop this tower was a small, wooden dingy, and in the dingy sat Pov.

   "Hi, Jack!" shouted Pov, waving happily.

   "Hi, Pov!" replied Jack, equally delighted.  Jack saw the Pov held a fishing pole whose line fed downward through a ring on the bow of yet another watercraft, this one a small, inflatable whitewater raft.  It appeared that Pov was using the raft as a sort of tugboat; its small outboard motor whirred, pulling the floating tower away from the bank.  Pov continued to wave as he drifted heavily towards deeper waters.
