Arkabutla

This week was Fall Break.  It was a nice relaxing week.  Yesterday, the Big Guy took the afternoon off.  We drove down to Hernando, MS to eat lunch at a restaurant that sources locally and has gotten great reviews.  Lunch did not disappoint.  After, I realized we were close to Lake Arkabutla.  I could not resist stopping.  During much of his middle school and early high school years, The Big Guy spent his weekends sailing with his dad on Lake Arkabutla.  It all sounds exciting, but it was normally very hot and there was little wind.  We stopped at the closest boat ramp, not the one used for sailing.  It was nice to hear sailing stories, yet again.  By the time we walked back to the car, Peanut was ready to buy a boat.  In the car ride home, Peanut decided kayaks might be the best option.

We aren't quite sure this is the area of the country to enjoy a sailboat or a kayak.  It just gets so blooming hot in the summer!

Looks like a fun trip! We almost headed up north to Saratoga Springs but the drive was long and that guy is on the loose in the Poconos, so we stayed home. Glad you got to enjoy being out!
