Lake Ray Hubbard, I have a crush on you

On this, the first Satuday without a regimented plan in nearly a month, E and I headed out to the lake with Zoee. The lake is blissful. Boating is heavenly. Floating around processing sun into vitamin D is good for my bones. Anyway, we were super excited.

Zoee is a Labrador, which means she LOVES the water. But it's hard to pull a wet, swimming dog into the boat without any leverage. Today we tried a new tactic. We put her in a life preserver. This not only improved our ability to pull her back in, but it also gave her endurance she's never known before.

Needless to say, after two hours of nonstop swimming, we were finished. After a long nap and some drying out, and this afternoon, she's ready to go again.
