R & R

There's nothing more relaxing than a boat ride on the lake.  We usually try to go out on the lake every Sunday in the late afternoon - often packing supper to take with us.  Today was the first time in a couple of months that we've been able to go out and I had really missed it. 

We put in at Longwood Park - just south of Clarksville, VA on Route 15.  Longwood is such a nice park.  It has a campground, picnic area with swimming area, and the boat landing.  It always amazes me that we don't see more boats.  We very seldom see more than a dozen boats during any trip we take out on the lake in this area. 

It is a beautiful area of the lake - very peaceful - with some homes built along the shoreline but still a lot of wooded areas, too.  We cruised up to Clarksville and along the shore of Occoneechee State Park (more info on Occoneechee) and then headed back toward Longwood.

I knit a little bath poof and will take a picture of it to show you soon.  I think it will go well with a bar of my soap!

Wishing everyone a great week!!
