MINI VACA ROCKED! READY TO RETURN!

Sweet boy out on the lake.

We had the best mini-vaca ever this past weekend! My BFF, Amy, Colby and I headed to Lake Barkley to visit my other BFF Kim and her hubbie Philip for a long weekend. We left as soon as Amy got off work on Thursday and we could get loaded up and on the road. Colby did really well on the 3-hour drive there and back. Basically we ate, drank, visited, took boat rides, played games, napped, went for drives and overall just had the best time! Kim, Philip and Kizmo (their morkie) have a beautiful home right on the lake. They spoiled us rotten – we never had to want for anything! Amy and Kim were great at helping me with Colby as much as they could. Philip helped out around the house a lot so Kim could visit with us. The weather was disgustingly hot, but hey, what you gonna do? We are already planning our next trip down there. Can't wait! Here are some pics of our fun-filled Barkleyfest vaca:

This was our view for the trip. Beautiful, peaceful Lake Barkley. Aaaaaah, heavenly. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There was some intense Yahtzee!-ing and Trouble-ing going on between boat rides.

  

Took a drive to the Land Between the Lakes Elk and Bison Prairie. It was like we called ahead and said we were coming! Animals were out and feeding. Beautiful creatures.

Check out this beast! He was right outside the van. Just hanging out, on the side of the road, waiting for us to come along and show Colby.
