4th of July Festivities

We spent a lot of time on the dock this past 4th of July weekend. We got the fireworks out of the way early by motoring over to our friends' lakehouse, Wade & Christie Nicolas, on the 3rd for an outstanding show. This allowed us to concentrate on relaxing at the dock. No boating for us on the 4th of July...too crazy out there. Just dock-time...swimming, fishing and being lazy.

Maggie enjoyed casting a line in the water:



Gary enjoyed casting a line while reclining (very taxing as you can see):



Shiner and Maggie enjoyed pulling Gary's big catch out with the net:



Meow! A nice 3.5 to 4 pounder.



And...I enjoyed taking pictures.
