A Bad Day on the Lake...

A bad day on the lake...
is better than a good day at work...

That's the saying that I've heard, and Tuesday was not a real good day on the lake. It started out fine, but around 10:30 the clouds started rolling in and blocking the sun. We had met Bonnie & Donnie and we all decided to move farther SE of the Lillydale campground. That gave us another hour, but eventually the rain started there also. We waited for a slacking of the rain and made a quick run to Star Point and spent about a half hour under their covered boat slips. Once the hard rain was over we boated out in the middle of the lake and looked for some sun. We could see it in the north, so we headed to Fannie's Creek to try to get to some better weather. The sunny skies were further north and we were unable to reach that area. We stayed there with short times of light rain and partly cloudy the rest of the day. About 4:30 we decided to head to the dock while there was a time without any rain. We loaded the boat and tied down the tarp and headed for home. The closer we came to home, it looked like less rain had fell. By the time we pulled the boat in the shed, there had been no rain at the farm.
