We have a place at Lake Tenkiller in Oklahoma, one of the most scenic and clear water lakes our state has to offer. Lots of cliffs and bluffs. This is a shot of our "grillzeebo" with the fire and the lake through the trees.

Currently slipped on White Bear Lake in White Bear Lake Lake MN 15 mins north of Saint Paul. We will be trailering to St Croix river at least once this year along with Lake Minnetonka. We will be celebrating Memorial Day and the Fourth of July on Big Sandy Lake in Mcgregor MN.

We need pictures Dale. Can't wait to see them. We're going to be jealous I'm sure. Can't imagine the sites there.

Boat is wet slipped on Lake Travis. I don't own a trailer, so that's my lake. It's ok because I also live there, 5 min to the HOA marina.

Travis is long and narrow, but has a number of places to eat. Water is very clear year round, and the steep sides always provide some sheltered water away from the wind.

My wife has the second Captain's chair, but doesn't like to set there in the summer, claims it is the hottest spot on the boat. Usually sets in the rear facing forward and talks to me. Since I have extreme hearing loss from guitars, machinery, and shotguns there is a lot of "huh, what, and shaking of the head at cruising speed.

Rough River in SW Kentucky is where we call home. Our intentions are to hit the other lakes in Ky as well as Monroe, Patoka, and Brookville in Indiana. We also have about 100 miles if the Ohio River we want to see in the fall.
