Mid May was very warm and sunny and we got a lot of work done. Good thing--the rains came. We began to understand Noah a lot better. The lake rose nearly two feet and they say it isn't done yet.
The first weekend mornings of June were fantastic however; the sun was shining, the temperature was comfortable, but the lake was eerily quiet and calm--no boats, the docks are pulled out, canvas covers are off the lifts, we park the pontoon on what was once the beach.
But it lends itself to a wonderful pontoon breakfast on the river ride. Mitch manned the controls Saturday morning and Shayne manned the grill. We girls thoroughly enjoyed our scrambled eggs with chili and grilled English muffins. Yummy!
For dinner all twelve of us hit the pontoon for a quiet lake ride and a taco and refried beans dinner. We made great use of the quiet lake.
IHOP eat your heart out. Breakfast on Sunday morning was on the deck. Tony made the waffles and Shayne made the omelets and bacon, both on the grill. Jo left her caramel rum sauce and together with fresh sliced bananas, breakfast again was better than we could get at a restaurant (except Jason's).
After breakfast we all took the pontoon to the sand bar, the spot on the lake that "was" ankle deep last year. With water temp at about 70 degrees the kids were loving jumping off the edge of the pontoon into the chest high water. We didn't have to fight for sandbar space at all!
