"Into the Mystic"

This year for our summer vacation, we had to alter our plans a little, out of fear from the oil spill that endangered the beach where we had planned to go. Instead, we rented a fabulous three bedroom condo on Lake Hamilton in Hot Springs, Arkansas. It was an awesome location right on the water with our own boat slip, so we took Geno's boat with us so we could toodle around and the boys could fish. The first morning we were there, we all loaded up, life-jacketed of course, for our maiden voyage in the 'Fish Master.' Landon, you couldn't get enough of riding with Daddy at the helm; Shelby...it took you a little warming up to. And once you did warm up, you had a little enjoyment before you got too sleepy and nothing would make you happy. That's when we cruised on back home. We loved having the boat right there, ready for us whenever we wanted to go out again; Shelby free, however.
