We have had a great couple of days at the cabin. Vacation finally - I can sleep past 8AM! You know I am rested and relaxed - even the dogs sleep in and lounge all day. Last night we took both dogs down to Ostin Creek and Payton actually went swimming. Adger still wants his feet on the bottom but I dragged him across the creek anyways - it was right up under his neck! Too funny..... yesterday we did something we have always wanted to do. We took the canoe out to the lake and ventured into the Ostin Creek basin of the lake. There are some pretty houses there and we actually canoed all the way to the bridge. Wilderness at its finest through there. Pretty neat looking up at the house from the water - we even canoed right up on a deer that was getting a drink. We didnt catch much fish but we swam - laughed - got to see a bald eagle - swam some more... it was lots of fun. We spent about 6 hours on the canoe and even ventured past the Ostin Creek basin and further down the lake. Furthest we have even been. Still have not seen the entire lake but its pretty none the less. Glad the batteries held out. We are the only ones in the state probably with a motor on our canoe! No way we could paddle that far!
Tomorrow we head back home - going to get a morning start and get the grass cut - stop and see our friend Donna and her 2 girls hopefully - get a chance to hang with them a little and enjoy the last of vacation! Big serving day Sunday at church and I am pumped about being back. I have missed everyone - but glad God has given me the rest and relaxation this week. A recharge of the batteries for all of us.
Love you all,
Randy
