Boat riding
Sep 01
Today we went to Smith Mountain Lake, Jack has a friend that owns a house on the lake. It’s mostly a retirement area and/or area for people that have a lot of money.
The lake is 26 miles long and has ~500 miles of shore line. Jim and Marry (the couple that has the house on the lake) has a party platoon type boat. They took us out on the lake, we road around for almost 3 hours. Very beautiful house and scenery. After awhile, we stopped at a restaurant and ate. They have a dock that you can walk out on and beside the dock there are hundreds of Carp fish just waiting for someone to toss some pop-corn in. I could reach down and pick one up or even pet them. Everywhere you went they would follow you with there mouths wide open!
After we ate we rode for a little while longer and than went back to their house and talked for a bit. After, we went home and relaxed for the rest of the day. I read for a couple of hours on Mom’s porch swing and fell asleep for an hour.
