BACK TO THE LAKE

I started washing and waxing the motor home yesterday, and by 2pm, that was becoming more and more like work, so we put a few drinks in the cooler, and headed down to the marina. As soon as we pulled the boat out into Thompson Bay, we noticed this huge crowd of spring breakers in a controlled access area of London Bridge Beach. Rockstar Energy drink was obviously the sponsor, as they had EZ ups & banners everywhere. There was a live band, and the kids looked like they were having a good time.

It's a good thing this boat was on the beach because with that many people inside, it may not have gotten very far on the lake.

After checking out the big Rockstar Party, we cruised into the south channel, and parked across from the daily spring break party. We sat there for awhile, watching the boats cruise by, and enjoying the really good weather of 80+ degrees, and virtually no wind.

Later, we cruised through the channel, taking in some of the party action, then headed across the lake to Copper Canyon. There's usually something going on over there, and if nothing else, it's always fun to watch the kids jumping off the big rock.


When we got into the canyon, I watched this guy get ready to jump, and when he did take the leap, it wasn't just a jump into the water. He did a front flip off the approx. 40' rock, and fortunately, landed feet first.

If you click the above picture to enlarge, you'll see that this guy is upside down, and half way through his front flip.

On the way back from Copper Canyon, we cruised around the island, and noticed this gathering at one of the RV parks. Thinking that this might be another spring break party, I idled into the cove only to discover that it was a large group of seniors, doing their version of what the kids were doing on the other side of the island. I guess you might call this "Geezer Break".

We cruised through the channel one more time before putting the boat away, and I took this shot of the London Bridge from it's north side. It was another good day on the lake, with lots of things to see. Today, we're picking up Bob & Diana, and taking the boat across the lake to the Casino for lunch.
