Lake Scenes

leave a comment »

While I’m on a run of lake scenes, I’ll post another one as a closer of our fantastic weekend. It was so beautiful that we stayed till Sunday evening and drove home with hardly a moment to spare, getting unpacked with minimal time to get ready for a few hours sleep before Monday morning demands my attention. The activity level didn’t leave me much time to write. In addition to the power lounging we did on floating mats in the lake, we got in quite a few family card games. I enjoyed an incredible run of favorable luck over the weekend, and I was the winner in every game I played. I mentioned to Cyndie that we should maybe make a run to the casino, something I never actually do. I think it surprised her a bit. I quickly talked her out of it, because, instead of truly believing my luck would make that a logical thing to do, I expected that my luck was probably all used up at that point. We did enjoy some additional luck last night, though, in the form of an incredibly picturesque display of the sunset during our drive home to the Twin Cities. It wasn’t far off from the color show we were treated to on Saturday night, when we rode the pontoon boat home across the lake after dinner at Famous Dave’s restaurant.
