A Day at the Lake

Today was hot so I decided to take the kids to the lake. Because we live in West Texas, a dry area, finding a swimming hole isn't easy. The only place I know of that has enough water for swimming is Buffalo Springs Lake. It is a pretty place but it isn't free so we do not go very often. The cost is $5 per adult and $3 per child.

Our outing began with my Personal Chauffeur at the wheel.
Here we are entering the lake area.
This is the small beach where we spent the afternoon.
The water felt good and since it was a weekday we were not over crowded.
This was the very first time Elizabeth had ever been to the lake.
The day turned out nice but we are now exhausted and very sunburned!

I heard there were a lot of changes at Buffalo lake. I also recognize that beach area. I got my truck stuck in it one time. This is where Alan and I used to FISH all the time when we first met.

What happened to that pool you bought last year?
