Retirement Life at the Lakehouse

I retired June 2009 and I have spent much more time at The Lakehouse. I have enjoyed each and every day and have not had a bored moment. I stay so busy doing things I want to do that I rarely find myself idle. I guess with the major remodeling complete there has not been as much to post. This is a new phase of life at The Lakehouse and maybe I can post retirement memories.

Fathers Day!!!!!

Since I am gonna be here most of the week I decided I would post every day.

Today is Fathers Day and I had all the fathers in the family over for a fresh veggie meal and Aunt Helen came, too. I think everyone enjoyed it. I cooked FRESH purple hull peas, new potatoes, fried squash, fried okra, fresh tomatoes, cucumber, green onion, banana pepper and canteloupe. Oh I also fixed a pork loin and Boston butt. We also had cornbread, banana pudding, peach cobbler, devils food cake, ice cream..... Sorry Tracy... but we did miss you being here. Brandon and Dustin we missed you as well......It was a very hot day here and I must say the cooking had the house heated up. Everyone seemed tired, I guess the heat and the busy weekend had the kids all tired out as well. Some of the fathers did get a nap. Some of us did got for a nice swim to cool off. Late in the evening Pat and I and Chris and his kids took the Pontoon out for tubing with the kids. We also made a stop at the island which was a lil different and nice change. We should do that again some time. Pictures are worth a thousand words.


Today we made a trip to the ISLAND and seems this may become a normal stop for us....it is just a huge rock and has sand on one end and in the middle...is shallow areas all around that are solid rock. This is the island close tomy friends lot and close to Little Dismal.
