1st Morning at Lilley's Landing

Summer vacation began yesterday!  This year it is a bit different.  Instead of an epic road trip we settled into old comfort in a couple of planned smaller trips.

Yesterday we arrived at Lilley's Landing in Brandon, Missouri.  We have been coming here for 40 years now.  We missed a few years, but now these trips have been fairly consistent.

We are in Cabin 6 - small, but cozy.

Our first morning was cool before the sun crested the mountain across the river.  Fog lingered.  Good coffee weather.

Back home Hurricane Beryl is coming ashore around Corpus this morning.  We are hoping for rain back home.  After all the rain this spring things have gotten dry again.  Cooler weather is predicted both there and here this week, and the residual rains may reach us here.  

Today is a relaxation day.  We will get our fishing licenses, fish from the dock and debate renting a boat.  

I look forward to the day we bring a boat back up here.  

It was a quiet day, and we ended it with some time by the water.  The fog rolled in around 8:30 pm.
