The Maiden Voyage



This morning we set sail with the Nellie Sue on her maiden voyage on Chickamauga Lake. The wind wasn't very strong so we didn't go very fast but we did manage to get out in the middle of the lake where we jumped in and swam. The heat index for today was 108 degrees, so the water felt VERY refreshing!

After our swim, we had a picnic lunch and sailed back to the beach from wenst we saileth. Here are a few more still pictures of our sailing trip.





Thanks to Todd for taking these last two pictures for us.
