Lazy day on the lake

After we got back from Reno we picked up the cats, who got back into the routine pretty quickly. Out every morning, then back inside for a snack in the afternoon. Now with daylight savings time, they go back out after their treats, but usually they just hang around the yard or the deck. If there's time before dinner we take them out for a forest walk. They're usually pretty excited about that.

This weekend we went out sailing on the lake. Not much wind, only 6 mph, so it was a lazy couple of hours. Still nice, though. Even with this light wind we managed to circle around the sailing club's race circuit to find new potential arms of the lake to investigate when the winds are better. This year we might have to stay on Lake Keowee if Lake Hartwell's water level remains as low as it is. So we're on the lookout for good places to anchor the sailboat on local beaches so that we can go for a swim in the summer months.

After sailing Corey wanted to get some yardwork done. I think she had time enough to clear out another region of the yard of fall's debris, while I drove in another truckload of mulch. There's more stuff to do in the yard, and more mulch to get. I'll try to get more mulch Monday. Then Tuesday I get to play with a new band—a metal band this time, when we'll try to play some of the harder hits of the 80s as well as more recent stuff. Should be fun!

Andrew, how did you make out with your NEW band to-nite? Also, did Corey tell you about The "Tail of the Dragon" at Deals Gap in southern NC. It would be a real good place to take the Bike or even the Beamer. Check it out on You Tube. Brad
