Dog Days of Summer: Lulu Floats the Holston





Lulu's not big on taking baths, or swimming in cold water it appears, but she did love running around the rocks and exploring the shores of the Holston River. It took her a few hours to get used to the canoe, meanwhile Laurence and I got a nice workout shifting our weight to balance out the extra 60 pounds that kept rockin' the boat. She's just so cute!

This picture sums up our day nicely. We passed a few fishermen off the shore, but our little canoe was the only boat on the river that day. After working on the house what seems like every weekend this summer, our day trip was a welcomed and relaxing respite. Hopefully lots more to come; there is so much beauty around us in East TN!



A dinner consisting of our catch of the day and garden's bounty was the perfect ending to our delightful day. I caught the Rock Bass and Rainbow Trout, by the way:)
