The Drane's took our family reunion to a nearby lake last weekend. The houseboat we rented was really neat, the kids were happy because it had a slide! While some of the family stayed all night on the boat, a few of us stayed in a more accommodating hotel. The house boat was really nice and Thanks to Uncle Jeff, our personal navigator , he was able to borrow a speed boat to get us there and back. The high waters wouldn't allow docking at our hotel. We ate, swam, fished, ate, swam, and fished. Pretty much in that order. I think another houseboat trip is in the future! Cousin Andrea said this year :) I second that one!!!
