Norris Lake

On Father's Day, Dad, Mom, and the hearth and homers (Kimberly, David, Danny, and I) headed to Norris Lake in Tennessee. We stopped at Panda Express on the way and a quick Walmart run for groceries. Arriving at the house at 12:00 a.m., we discovered that the only way to the house was down a steep hill (at least that's what we thought). David and Dad tried to back the van/boat down the hill. The van lost traction and thankfully David packed sandbags which were stuck behind the boat wheels. We all got behind the boat or the van and pushed as David put the petal to the metal. Thankfully, the van made it up the hill. They later discovered a longer driveway that went right to the house. But that was just the beginning of our adventures.
This was our very long house.
The dock was our favorite part of the house.
When we weren't on the boat or playing games, we were gone fishin'
If you can see it, that was the smallest fish I caught.
All the fish that were caught were about this size. We did see a big catfish, but no one was able to catch it.
Tubing was by far my favorite thing to do on the boat!
It was also fun learning how to kneeboard.
When the motor needed to cool, we jumped in for a swim.
Kimberly and I took naps on the boat when we went out early.
David and I paddling around the floating houses.

Relaxing on the porch.

We had quite the great vacation!
