My Happy List

I'm happy that it's summer, and the season for lake weekends.  YAY!  This past weekend combined fun and a few storms, but that's okay.  It was a great weekend!

Scenes from around Lake Martin, June 1st - 2nd

Bonnie thinks that the captain's chairs at the front of the boat are her domain!

Captain and Skipper
Bonnie jumped in the water and swam to Mr. Art @ Home in his flotation device.

We enjoy the Church of the Living Waters.  We can walk to church.  In flip flops, t-shirts, and shorts.  No one cares....

An eagle scout paved a lovely walkway from the boat dock to the sanctuary with fieldstone.  He also planted ferns and gardenias.  It smells like heaven in mid-summer!

Lots of sailboats on the lake this weekend

Nibblers is Lake Martin's "float-thru" restaurant.
Shelley's giving it two thumbs up!
She's not speaking to me because I posted this photo!  ;P


Please share your happy posts with us!

Reminder:  This Friday plan to share your summer reading list here for Literary Friday!

Until next time...

  1. Is this picture from this year? I'm such a wimp - it has to be really hot before I'm getting out there in the lake water. Sure looks like fun and the church sounds great.

  3. Oh your lake is so pretty and I love the fast food joint on the water. Who knew? We are headed up the coast this weekend. Can't wait. We aren't camping but staying at Dean's folk's house with some friends.

    We've not done that since giving up our sailboat many years ago. Miss it!

  6. Ricki Jill,
    Wow, that lake looks like so much fun. I love your little dog and how she swam to your husband. Do you have a home on this lake?

  14. You are one lucky person to be able to go to the lake every weekend! It looks great. I hope Shelley is talking to you again, and let her know the picture isn't bad...she is still as cute as can be.

  15. Bonnie is sure a water baby! Sorry your daughter is speaking. I'm sure you'll do something even more annoying and she'll forget you posted the picture. LOL Thanks for the great party.

  16. I am jealous that you have already had good times on your lake. We've yet to get out on our boat but have hopes of doing so this weekend.

    Nibblers is a great idea and I'll bet people love to see it coming. We have an ice cream boat and love to wave it down for a treat.
