Norris Lake

Ok, so it’s Covid-19 year. The year we were supposed to travel like crazy: Iceland, Ireland, the Netherlands. But, then the world shut down and we all hunkered down at home for 3 months. Travel will be back; it may look different, but it will be back. In the meantime, what do we do? For the most part, we followed guidelines and stayed in our homes. We socially distanced. We checked on our people and stood in line at Costco. We wore face coverings when necessary. It was a lot. It was stressful. But, we survived. Now, the world is starting to turn again. People are getting back to some sort of normal. Sports are starting back up again, schools are making plans for our return, and it’s time to hit the road once again.

Our first “trip” was to drive down to Tennessee and visit the Hursts on Norris Lake. No big shocker there–we quarantined with the Hursts all through this mess. So why wouldn’t we jump on a pontoon boat with them and do some day drinking? Aside from the very red skin we returned home with, it was a blast! The kids loved it! They learned to drive a boat from Uncle Todd, they jumped in the lake and swam around, they floated on floaties. It was a great break! Now, for the pictures!
